This issue has been solved. See solution.

With 11.x when searching the Computer Status logs, I used search string of *servers* to report on all my server groups. Worked fine.

I cannot get this to work in 12.1 now. Has something changed with the way wildcards are read?

When I add a % and hit View Log, nothing comes up. When I click back, a * shows up instead of the % so it must be the same thing.

So I entered %servers% and got what I needed but when I hit back, the syntax shows *servers*

So it works....until I hit back I need to retype %servers% again becaue it puts it at *servers*

Weird, but I can manage I guess

This is a known issue

Using wildcard * with characters does not return results
