Server Event Logging

Server Event logs record important events generated from the Provisioning Server. These events consist of all severity levels (success, information, warning, fatal, and error). The logs record every client-initiated operation and its success or failure, including generated sub-operations.

In the System Task frame of the Provisioning Manager, under Global Properties, use the Logging tab to configure Server Event logging. Server Event logs typically only need to be configured once.

In some cases, you can turn logging on or off, or you can configure the severity levels of the messages logged. Thus, this Server Event logging can serve to audit the activities that are taking place within the Provisioning Server. However, the preferred auditing of provisioning activity is to enable the IMS Notifications features. The IMS Notifications feature sends detailed audit records to the IMS server for inclusion in the full audit record of CA IdentityMinder activity. The notification records sent to the IMS can also trigger events for the additional CA IdentityMinder Server processing.
