Accessing audit and ports usage files

The audit log is a historical log of cluster configurations. The audit log tracks all configuration changes made to the system over a period. All displayed times reflect the time zone of the application server. The details of the audit log include the date and time of the change, the changed object, and the new value to be assigned.

The system creates and saves port usage logs daily on the application server in the comma-separated value (.csv) format. You can save the log files in your machine and then use the files.

Procedure

  1. On the Administration menu, click Messaging > Logs > Audit/Ports Usage.
  2. Select one of the following:
    • To access the audit log, click configd-audit.log.

    • To access a port usage log, click the port usage log (.csv) file that you want to view.

  3. Save the file on your system.

    The best way to view the audit log is using a structured text editor, for example, TextPad or WordPad.

    You can view the port usage log using the port usage template. For more information, see Viewing the port usage report.
