Expand Audit Logging to include CFG file changes

Post by jaimie.livingston »

It does not appear that Audit Log captures changes to CFG files (nagios.cfg, cgi.cfg), User Macros (resource.cfg), object fields, and many other areas of the CCM or NagiosXI Admin forms.

From a systems management PoV, it would be very beneficial if all changes to any element presented in the NagiosXI or CCM guis were written into the Audit Log and included details about the changes (added/deleted text for cfg files, fields and new values for objects, etc.)

Thanks...

Thanks for the input! I can see where having these changes logged somewhere would be a benefit and we'll look into it.
