Overview

Starting with release 14.1.1, a new feature named Enhanced Auditing has been introduced. When the Enhanced Auditing feature is configured and enabled for a customer, the audit records for that customer are sent to the audit server whenever certain operations and modifications are made to modules as selected in the Audit Settings tab in Veritas Advanced Supervision. Changes to these modules made in Veritas Advanced Supervision, Compliance Accelerator, or both are logged. The Audit viewer tab in Veritas Advanced Supervision lets you search and export audit records for various modules and operations at the application, department, and folder levels.

To use the Enhanced Auditing feature, you need to follow the following workflow:

  1. Meet the requirements and prerequisites.

    See Prerequisites for the Enhanced Auditing feature.

  2. Install the Enhanced Auditing feature.

    See Installing the Enhanced Auditing feature.

  3. Set the Auditing configuration options in the Configuration > Settings tab in the Compliance Accelerator client.
  4. Use the Audit Settings tab in Veritas Advanced Supervision to edit the required settings for auditing.
  5. Use the Audit viewer tab in Veritas Advanced Supervision to search and export the audit records.
