Searching Through Audit Logs

To search through the Audit Logs, follow these steps:

  1. Select Audit Log Management in the Navigator pane. A Search pane appears.

  2. On the search pane, set the maximum number of results to be returned. This choice selects the last n number of records that meet your search criteria, when n is the value you enter.

  3. Set the maximum search time in seconds. The default is 25 seconds. You can make the search time longer, but no shorter. (If you cannot see the field for this parameter, expand the right pane.)

  4. Create search criteria. Select the type of event to search from the drop down box. Select the search criterion, and the search string. You can add multiple search criteria using the And, Or, and Not buttons.

  5. Click the Search button to start the search.

The Audit Log entries that meet your search criteria are displayed in the pane near the bottom of the screen. Select an entry and press View Properties to see detailed information.
