Hello all,
I have a next case.
In one of my index i have a data on Russian language, and if i want start search something i must know accurate name.
Search is case-sensitive letters.
For example if in log we have a word Сессия and in search request we write index="index_name" "сессия" - we haven't anything in result.

Maybe anybody know solution to this problem.
Thank you.

Your problem is segmenting and the non-segmenting characters that are surrounding your string. The bottom line is that you need to use the asterisk wildcard (probably on both ends). Read more about it here:

The base search in splunk is always case-insensitive. To make it case-sensitive, use the CASE operator like this:

index="index_name" CASE(сессия)

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/SearchReference/Search

This search should be case-insensitive:

index="index_name" сессия

If it is not matching, it is because of the extra double-quotes you used.

Thank you. I've been searching all morning for case related to upper and lower case letters, not the case statement.

I'm looking for a generic account named 'devops' and I get results for the directory named 'DevOps'. This weeded out the unwanted results.

With information on the link is not yet time to read, but test what you write me,

index="index_name" *ессия - i have a 40 strings in result.
index="index_name" cессия - i have a 7 strings in result.
index="index_name" Cессия - i have a 33 strings in result.

If i try index="index_name" CASE(сессия) - i have 7 string in result.

And i want have all 40 string when i use something like index="index_name" cессия
