That would work as an LDAP search filter, yes. Maybe you could tell us what you're actually trying to do here, what you've tried, and what happened. Having us guessing probably isn't going to work out…

The example you posted looks like the LDAP interpretation of a time string. For the IDM engine, you need to use CTIME. You can convert one to the other as needed.

Don't forget that the LDAP time format is not CTIME, it's yyyyMMddHHmmssZ

In IDM Policy (DirXML Script) you can only query for the exact value, in CTIME as David suggested. I do not think wildcards are supported.
If you use LDAP in ECMA in your driver,, you can query for a lesser than or equal/greater than or equal timestamp to get something within a date range.
