How to enable filesystem level audit logs for specific files or directories in a CIFS share

Good afternoon,

We own a Unity300D storage appliance. I can't find if there might be a way to get audit logs (filesystem level) to monitor directories and/or file accesses on CIFS shares (eg. read/writes/delete...) to identify operation executed by users (Active Directory users). Is that feature available for this appliance and how to enable it?

Thanks

Hi,

Windows (CIFS) auditing is available either through Windows style security.evt logs or via CEPA

There are also 3rd party applications - some in the Unity support matrix - some others not to do that.

To enable CIFS auditing start with Chapter 3 of the Configuring Hosts to access SMB file systems PDF manual which is called "Auditing SMB Users and Objects"
