Viewing audit information for Management Server

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
You can use the Management Server console to view audit information collected by Management Server. For audit purposes, Management Server collects information on all activities initiated using the Management Server console. This audit tracking also includes activities which were prevented from being carried out because they were not authorized.
Management Server collects the following audit information:
  • The date and time of the activity.
  • The activity, for example, configuring an enclosure.
  • The location where the activity occurred.
  • The target on which the activity was performed.
  • The user.
  • Whether the activity was authorized.
  • The reason for the operation.
For a reason to be collected, the advanced authorization settings for Management Server must be enabled. If enabled, the Reason panel appears after an operation is performed and the user is asked to enter a reason for performing the operation.
See Configuring advance authorization settings.
You can view this information, if your user group has Admin role assigned on the Management Server perspective.
You can also export the information to a file.
