Tracking who deleted a file or folder w/ Data Insight

 

Can I leverage Data Insight to track down who deleted a file or a folder?

Use case:  Someone calls the Helpdesk saying that Super Important folder is missing and they need to be able to access that folder.  So  I open up data insight and navigate to the filer and show who deleted that file?

Or is this not a proper use case of the system?

  • Yes, IT is supported if you track Audit information from your filer.

    go to Workspace -->filer -->share\path\ use folder activity to verify of any delete event has accord, list as others.

    then use auditing tab to verify who performed the deletion, filer events by access method use “delete”  .
