As you're seeking a numeric (not regex) exclusion, I'd skip complex
regex gymnastics, and just pipe the log file through "grep -v AAA000A"
before using your simple regex, now with no OK messages to confuse
matters.

If that doesn't appeal, just globally s/AAA000A/AAA_OK, before running
your regex. That way an undo restores vim's text buffer, if any reason
for doing that comes to mind. In neither case is the log file affected.
