Journal Auditing.. Missing Audit Option

[Chris_Horswill]

Hi,

We would like to enable auditing on anything or one that searches our journal archive.

In the help it says "In the left pane of the Administration Console, right-click the Directory and, on the shortcut menu, click Enable Auditing."

The thing is, we don't have this option. How do I go about getting that option installed?

Many thanks,

Chris H

Hi Chris

Are you sure that you are right-clicking the 'Enterprise Vault Directory' node in the admin console? What version of EV are you using?

If you are doing simple auditing on who is searching what on the journal archive, there is a simpler way which doesn't require a separate audit database (and performance hit!) - see page 110 in the Administrator's guide for V6.

Yup I've even copied the picture to ensure I'm right clicking on the directory.

We have KVS 6 with SP1....

I'll check out page 110 - thanks :D

If auditing is already turned on, then you will not see anything when you right click on the directory. If you go to Enterprise Vault Servers and right click and go to properties, do you see auditing options?

Nah nothing about auditing.....

Do you have an EnterprisevaultAudit database on your SQL server?

Hi,

Thanks for all the replies. The reason for this was indeed because we had Auditing already enabled.

We have checked the auditviewer and its working.
