Groovy scripts fail where agent name has parenthesis (parenthesis) characters (4229037)

When running a groovy script for a specific Foglight agent, the script fails because there is a special character such as a parenthesis (parentheses).

For example 

spiAgentName = "SPIRepository-ABCD00001234.example.com (ABCD00001234_FGLAM01)";

The presence of parentheses in the agent name interferes with the findByName(...) method. This method will try to parse the name as a Regular Expression (Regex) where parentheses are special characters.

RESOLUTION 1

Use a Regular Expression wild card character such as

spiAgentName = "SPIRepository-ABCD00001234.example.com.";

RESOLUTION 2

Adjust the groovy script to use the AgentID instead of the agent name.
