up.time

...

 

up.time can be configured to record application configuration changes in an audit log named audit.log that is found in the logs directory.

 

There are many uses for the audit log. For example, use the audit log to track changes to your up.time environment for compliance with security or other local policies. You can also use the audit log to debug problems that may have been introduced by a specific configuration change; the audit.log enables you to determine who made the change and when it took effect.

 

The following is an example of an audit log entry:

...

2013-02-23 12:28:20,082 - dchiang: ADDSYSTEM [cfgcheck=true, port=9998, number=1, use-ssl=false, systemType=1, hostname=10.1.1.241, displayName=MailMain, systemSystemGroup=1, serviceGroup=, description=, systemSubtype=1]

 

Enabling the Audit Log

...

The audit log is disabled by default. To enable the audit log: 

  1. Open the uptime_install_folder\uptime.conf file in a text editor and add the following line:

    Code Block
    languagetext
    auditEnabled=yes
  2. Save the file and exit the text editor.
  3. Restart the Data Collector.

     

    On Linux or Solaris systems, enter the following commands at the command line:

    Code Block
    language
     
    text
    /etc/init.d/uptime_core stop
    
    /etc/init.d/uptime_core start
    

     

     On Windows platforms, enter the following commands at the command line: 

    Code Block
    languagetext
    net stop "up.time Data Collector"
