Archiving audit data

Use Archive to configure the contents of the audit.

Note: You must be a member of the Security Administrators group to export an audit, and a member of the Storage Administrators group to access the generated log file.

After you create audit data, you can store older data as archived data. You can still access current audit data for reporting purposes. If you do not archive your audit data, it may affect system performance.

Archive data is stored in the security database.

  1. To open Audit Archive in Security Console, select Audit > Archivet.
  2. Select an archive date that is before today.
    All data, up to and including the specified date, will be archived.
  3. Ensure that Delete Only is unselected.
  4. Click Run Job. A message indicates that the data has been successfully archived.
