Gonzalo Herreros commented on FLUME-2851:
-----------------------------------------

Please use the distribution list for questions.
You have to build a regular expression which you can do using an online tool to test it before pasting it to the Flume configuration.

I guess what you are looking for is:
(Pqr\.log)|(Xyz\.log)

but I haven't tested it

> As I understood from the documentation, I can specify the file pattern which will be ignored by the flume agent. But when I tried it then I found that I can specify only one file pattern which will be ignored. How can I specify the value so that multiple files can be ignore by agent. For example,
> I have a spool directory in which I have 3 different log files
> Abc.log
> Pqr.log
> Xyz.log
> Now I need to configure the agent source in such a way that it just reads the file Abc.log and ignore Pqr.log and Xyz.log. So how do I specify this using 
> agent1.sources.source1.ignorePattern=
> Please help me if I am missing on the correct regex for this. Is it a bug?
> Thanks.
> [~tomwhite]: Please help
