Trying to exclude logs using the grep's exclude directive.

<filter kubernetes.var.log.containers.**>
  @type grep
  <exclude>
    key kubernetes.pod_name
    pattern /^podname-*/
  </exclude>
</filter>

I tried with different key names e.g. container and namespace as well. I am trying to exclude logs from a certain pod using the pattern but it's not working. Using type forward source type to send logs.

Want to exclude logs from certain pods starting with the same name from var log containers.

Please add sample names to your questions that you want to exclude and include. – Azeem Jan 09 '23 at 08:25
Hi, like to exclude logs from pods like sytem-* , rest need to be parsed as they should be – vijay varma Jan 09 '23 at 08:27
Hi! Please try: `pattern /system-.*/` in the `exclude` section. Example: https://regex101.com/r/UFNW8l/1 – Azeem Jan 09 '23 at 08:33
Hi, Tried no luck. Will try to change key names and check once – vijay varma Jan 09 '23 at 09:34

Have you deployed `fluentd` as a DaemonSet? What kind of deployment do you have exactly? Please add this information to your question. If it's possible, please create a small repo (or post everything here) containing the deployment to reproduce this. Thanks! – Azeem Jan 12 '23 at 14:04
