Audit logs
An appliance restore will replace the audit logs with those in the backup. After a restore, new audit logs are
generated for all notifications/alerts and whenever state changes happen on the resources during the recovery
process.
To download audit logs, navigate to the Settings page in the KVM Admin Console and click Download audit logs
from the Actions list in the top right corner.
Once the download is complete, a zip file containing a collection of log files is provided. The recovery audit
messages are logged in the ‘iscrecovery_audit.log’ file.
The snapshots below show sample audit logs for both instances and image notifications.
