Enable event logging

Using the Agent Configuration page you can enable the event logging feature which writes Change Auditor events locally to a Windows event log. These event logs can then be collected using InTrust to satisfy long-term storage requirements.

 
* 
NOTE: This is a global setting and applies to all agents. Keep the following in mind when defining custom auditing:
•
Disabling Change Auditor events does NOT impact event logging.
•
Excluding accounts from auditing does NOT impact event logging with the exception of Exchange. That is, if an Exchange Mailbox account is set to exclude ALL mailbox events, then these events will also be excluded from the event log.
•
For Registry events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For Service events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For Active Directory events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, all Active Directory activity is sent to the event log.
•
For Azure Active Directory events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log
•
For ADAM (AD LDS) events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, all ADAM activity is sent to the event log.
•
For File System events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For Exchange mailbox events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured Exchange Mailbox activities are sent to the event log. Office 365 Exchange Online events are not logged to this event log.
•
For SQL Server events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For SQL Data Level events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For AD Query events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, all Active Directory queries, except those specified in the excluded AD Query list are sent to the event log. When enabling AD Query event logging, keep in mind that AD Query events could be of very high volume.
•
For EMC events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•
For NetApp events, event logging is disabled by default. When enabled, only configured activities are sent to the event log.
•

Coordinator Configuration page

The Coordinator Configuration page is displayed when you select Coordinator from the Configuration task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks tab.

This page consists of the following:

•
SMTP Configuration - for enabling and configuring SMTP for email alerting and reporting
•
Shared Folder Configuration - for enabling and configuring shared folders for reporting
•
Group Membership Expansion - for defining the schedule for expanding nested membership of Active Directory groups that are referenced in searches (Who search criteria) or groups that are defined in the Member of Group auditing feature
•
Agent Heartbeat Check - for specifying how long the coordinator service is to wait before an agent that is not sending updates will be marked as ‘inactive’
•
Scheduled Task Handling - for specifying which coordinators should handle purge, archive, and scheduled reports jobs.

 

SMTP Configuration

To dispatch alerts and reports through email (SMTP) you must enable email notification and define the mail server to use in the SMTP Configuration pane on the Coordinator Configuration page. In addition, you can optionally specify Exchange host information if you want to use the Exchange Global Access List (GAL) to lookup email recipients.

Configure email alerting and reporting by specifying the following information in the SMTP Configuration pane:

 
Table 1. Coordinator Configuration page: SMTP Configuration pane field/control descriptions
Field/Control
Description

Enable SMTP for Alerts and Reporting

Select this to enable email alert notifications and reporting. Checking this option activates the remaining fields on this page to define the mail server to use.

NOTE: The settings set on this page are global settings and apply to all alert/report emails. For alerts you can override the reply to, alert subject, signature and body content for individual search queries using the settings on the Alert tab (Search Properties tabs). For reports, you can override the To and Reply addresses, specify carbon copy (Cc and Bcc) recipients, and modify the subject line for individual search queries using the Report tab (Search Properties tabs).

Mail Server

When SMTP is enabled for alerts and reporting, enter the name or IP address of the mail server in this text box.

NOTE: To configure a specific SMTP port, append the mail server (SMTP server name or IP address) with a colon and the required port.
NOTE: Change Auditor sends alerts/reports through a single SMTP (email) relay configuration even when multiple coordinators are configured. That is, all coordinators will use the same mail server for sending alert notifications and reports.

From Server

Enter the email address from which alert notifications and reports are to originate.

Instead of entering an email address, you can use the browse button to the far right of the From Address field to select the user whose email address is to be used for alert notifications and email reports.

Clicking this button displays one of the following dialogs:

•
The Select Active Directory Objects dialog (Directory object picker) allows you to locate and select an Active Directory user. Use the Browse or Search page to locate and select an Active Directory user.
This dialog is displayed when no Exchange host is specified in the SMTP Configuration pane of the Coordinator Configuration page.
•
The Select Exchange Users dialog allows you to search for and select a mail-enabled object from the Exchange Global Access List (GAL). On the Exchange tab, enter a name or partial name, at least three characters long, and click the Search button to lookup mail-enabled objects in the GAL. On the Active Directory tab, use the Browse or Search page to locate and select an Active Directory user.

This dialog is displayed when an Exchange host is defined in the SMTP Configuration pane of the Coordinator Configuration page.

Reply To

Enter the address where replies to alert/report emails are to be sent.

Instead of entering an email address, you can use the browse button to the far right of the Reply To field to select the user whose email address is to be used for alert notifications and email reports.

This dialog is displayed when an Exchange host is defined in the SMTP Configuration pane of the Coordinator Configuration page.

Alert Subject

Enter a customized subject line to replace the default text in the subject line for alert notifications. The default subject line contains the following information:

Change Auditor %Alert_Type% from %Alert_Coordinator_Name%: %Alert_Name%

Where:

%Alert_Type% is either ‘Alert’ or ‘Smart Alert’
%Alert_Coordinator_Name% is the name of the coordinator generating the alert
%Alert_Name% is the name of the alert that fired
NOTE: The Alert Subject does not apply to email reports.

Click the browse button to the far right of the Subject Line field to select the variables to insert into the subject line or to reset it back to the default content.

Expand the Insert Variable option to insert one or more of the following variables into the subject line:

•
