I got a request from business asking that one of the user "read / write" activity on isilon SMB share.
We have 9 node cluster in our environment with Auditing Capability. Can some get me through the step by step procedure to check if the user did any reads or writes on folder in specific time frame (April 1st - till date).
Can you get me the guide where i can get the commands to explore auditing commands with examples. Since i am new to this array i need the doc. Thank you very much for your support!!
"isi_" commands are considered internal (Support commands) and have no documentation beyond the --help page supplied from the CLI:
Only two exceptions I can find are: isi_for_array, isi_gather_info these two commands have outlines in the CLI Admin guide for the respective OneFS version.
milpool-2# isi_audit_viewer --help
isi_audit_viewer: illegal option -- -
Usage: isi_audit_viewer [ -n | -t | -s |
-e | -v ]
-n : Specify node id to browse (default: local node)
-t : Choose topic to browse.
Topics are "config" and "protocol" (default: "config")
-s : Browse audit logs starting at
-e : Browse audit logs ending at
-v verbose : Prints out start / end time range before printing
Time prefixes can also be used, in which case missing values are
assumed to be 0.
E.g. "05:15" represents "05:15:00".
If not specified, end time defaults to now and
start time to 24 hours before end time.
Keep in mind these audit logs are held per node, so running the isi_aduit_viewer command on node 1 for someone connected to node 3 will not yield any results.
In reviewing the Sumologic web pages, it appears to have the ability to accept messages via Syslog. In that case, you can setup the Isilon to forward audit events via syslog.
Page 12 of the following documents provide an example of setting up syslog forwarding for audit events
