Re: Where is the audit log for the cluster?

bbjholcomb · ‎2013-09-09

When I login as diag I can see the node auditlogs but not the cluster. For example if I do node run -node xxx -command sysconfig, I see that in the log, if I do a snapmirror show command on the cluster management interface I can't find it.

You want to look at command-history.log for the clustershell log.

You can see that with the 'debug log' command or by viewing the file directly from mroot.

Thanks, but I still don't see all the commands I have using all day. I looked at others that were recent still nothing.

The commands get logged to the node the commands were issued to. Command history log is not cluster-wide, but is node specific.

For example, my snapmirror command gets logged on the node I ran the command on:

parisi-cdot::*> node show local

However, it does not appear that "show" commands get logged. Only commands where things were changed (same goes for vol show, aggr show, etc):

By default, "GET" requests are disabled:

However, those get logged to mgwd.log:

Thanks, this is great. Was this documented any place?
