Hello,

Admin -> Audit Log. This is part of our Enterprise Edition, and you can enable a 60-day trial of Enterprise when you visit the page.

More specifically, no those are not logged in the Nagios Core log file. I believe it is from the postgres database.

Is there any Nagios document available that explains database structure?
Wondering why Nagios has two differnent DBs and I would like to know what is stored on MySQL and Postgres?

Esentially, the Mysql DB "nagios, and nagiosql" are responsible for housing your configurations, and the postgres database handles user information such as what is used to log into the web interface, it also handles XI specific configuration information for the XI subsystem and it's web interface which runs on top of Nagios Core.
