Hello,
I have the following stanza in input.conf
[monitor:///ccv/app/oracle/diag/asm/+asm/+ASM*/trace/alert_+ASM*.log]
index = cei_oracle
sourcetype = oracle:asm:log
_TCP_ROUTING = val_idx-group
and file /ccv/app/oracle/diag/asm/+asm/+ASM1/trace/alert_+ASM1.log would not been indexed.
I modifie de path replacing every "+" with a "" `[monitor:///ccv/app/oracle/diag/asm/*asm/*ASM/trace/alert_ASM.log]
` and then the file is indexed.
How can I put a "+" on my path definition?
Thanks
Christian

Try escaping it using backward slash.
[monitor:///ccv/app/oracle/diag/asm/\+asm/\+ASM*/trace/alert_\+ASM*.log]
