The search option does not allow for this, but the select command does allow you to do anything you want. If you make the select a script or macro you can just about create your own 'q actlog' command with variables as input. These are the fields you can search on:
DATE_TIME: MSGNO: SEVERITY: MESSAGE: ORIGINATOR: NODENAME: OWNERNAME: SCHEDNAME: DOMAINNAME: SESSID: SERVERNAME: This is a sample select statement to do what you want. select * from actlog where (lower(message) like '%error%' or lower(message) like '%fail%') and date_time >current_timestamp - 2 hour This one generates output more like the q act command: select cast(date_time as char(16)), message as "Message " from actlog where (lower(message) like '%error%' or lower(message) like '%fail%') and date_time >current_timestamp - 2 hour Paul D.
