Archiving Audit Log Data Outside of the Controller
To archive the Audit Log data beyond the age-out policy, use the REST API to export the Audit Log
data out of the controller prior to its age-out date. Exporting Audit Log data does not remove it
from persistent storage.
Support Logs
The Support Logs function automatically maintains an internal record of events of interest from the
operations of an active SDN controller. This information is the type of data a support engineer
would request when troubleshooting an SDN installation.
Figure 20 Selecting the Support Logs
In a team environment, each controller maintains its own Support Logs.
Clicking on the Refresh button displays a listing of the most recent log messages, as determined
by the currently configured queue size. For example, with a queue size of 100, Refresh lists the
100 most recent log messages.
