I am searching for a string "xyz" that would result in all actionsteps (with counts) that has "xyz" in it, However I want to remove any string that ends with xyz_I or xyz_S.

Would someone be able to help me on this please.

Show us the sample events and indicate the ones to keep and the ones not to keep (calling out field names/values).

HI jaiarchi,
If I correctly understood: do you want to have all events where there is the string xyz but not the ones where there are xyz_I or xyz_S?
if this is your requirement you have to insert in your search:

your_search "xyz" NOT ("xyz_I" OR "xyz_S") | ...

Bye.
