What Audit Trails track
An audit trail is a record of all the user initiated activities. An audit trail consists of the changes that are made in the NetBackup environment. For example, changes such as creating a policy, deactivating a policy, or modifying a policy. The audit trails feature in OpsCenter lets you enable audit trail logging for NetBackup.
Note:
OpsCenter monitors, reports, and manages audit trails for the NetBackup primary servers for the version 7.1 or later.
You can control the audit settings and generate an Audit Trails Report. Through OpsCenter, you can set the audit logs retention period and also enable or disable audit trail logging.
Audit trails display the following information in the form of columns:
Column heading | Description |
---|---|
|
Displays the changes that are made to policies, storage units, jobs, audit configuration, audit service, pool, and storage server. For example, when a storage unit is added, modified, or deleted. |
|
Displays the action performed, such as whether a policy is modified, a storage unit is created, or a storage server is deleted. |
|
Gives a brief information about the category and the action performed. It also gives the identity of the category. |
|
