delete the test .txt file
▪
add a sub-folder
▪
change the security permission of the new folder

Troubleshooting steps

Troubleshooting steps

If the NetApp events do not appear as expected, check the following:

•
Verify that the NetApp filer is valid for the NetApp Auditing template. The NetApp Filer field should contain the NetBIOS name or IP address of the NetApp filer to be audited. The wizard does not validate this entry when it is entered.
•
Verify that the agents assigned to the NetApp auditing template are not on the servers that are initiating file changes to the NetApp filer. (This is a limitation with the NetApp filer’s FPolicy.)
•
Verify that the following options have been configured on the servers hosting the agents assigned to a NetApp Auditing template:
▪
Reverse DNS zone must be configured and functional in your domain.
▪
If Windows Firewall is enabled, it must be configured to allow ‘File Sharing’.

See the Release Notes for required rights and permission.

•
Verify that all of the agents assigned to a NetApp Auditing template have their user account in the local Administrators group of the NetApp filer or that you have specified the NetApp filer credentials in the NetApp Auditing wizard. See the Release Notes for required rights and permission.
•
Verify that you have selected those types of events in the NetApp Auditing template. (Events tab in the wizard.)
•
Verify that you have included the correct subfolders and paths in the NetApp Auditing template. (Inclusions tab in the wizard.)
* 
NOTE: Entering * will include all subfolders and paths.
•
Verify that you have not excluded the specified subfolders or paths in the NetApp Auditing template. (Exclusions tab in the wizard.)
•
Refresh the specified agent configurations on the Agent Configuration page to ensure the latest NetApp Auditing template is being used.
•
Verify what version of Data ONTAP is being used. That is, NetApp filers running version 7.2 (or earlier) will NOT capture the File/Folder Ownership Changed or File/Folder Access Rights Changed events.
•
If you are using an older version of Data ONTAP, you may need to upgrade to version 7.3.4 (or later) in order to capture events.

Introduction

You must define a separate NetApp auditing template for each NetApp filer to be audited by Change Auditor. The NetApp Auditing page on the Administration Tasks tab displays details about each NetApp Auditing template created and allows you to add new auditing templates.
