Columns

Column	Information
Name	The virtual service for which the event was logged. Click it to view detailed information on the service. This column is empty if the event concerns VirtServer, not a virtual service (for example, when VirtServer starts, or its settings are changed).
Action	The event that occurred. The possible values are: LOGIN LOGOUT AUTO_START SERVER_START SERVER_STOP ANALYTICS CONFIG_UPDATE DEPLOY HAR_REMOVE HAR_FETCH UPDATE START STOP SOCKET DEPLOYMENT_REMOVE DEPLOYMENT_GROUP DEPLOYMENT_UNGROUP
Date	The timestamp of the event in the `MM/DD/YYYY hh:mm:ss` format.
User	The VirtServer user who made the changes.
Client Host	The IP address of the user computer.
Result	Indicates whether the event was successful or not. The possible values are Success and Failure.
Extra Info	Additional information about the event. For example, information on the changed VirtServer settings or the cause of a failure.

Filter the log

To find data on the page, enter the search phrase in the Search Table edit box. All the log items whose columns contain the entered text will be displayed on the page. The items that do not contain the entered phrase will be hidden.

For example, enter a virtual service name to find all the events related to that service, or type start to see all the events related to staring virtual services or VirtServer.

By default, VirtServer searches in all the columns. You can use the drop-down list to select only one column to search in.

Export log information

You can export the log information in the CSV or PDF format. The resulting file will contain the same information the Audit Log page displays when you export the data. The items you filtered out will not be included in the exported log.

To export the log:

Use the Search Table edit box to find the events you need to export and to hide the other events.
Click Generate Report and select a report type.

VirtServer will generate a file of the appropriate type and offer you to download it.

Using command-line utility

To get the audit log with the command-line utility, use the -audit command. You can read more about it in this topic.
