Generation of audit data is disabled by default as it can potentially impact
the performance of SkyVault. To enable auditing, configuration must be added to the SkyVault
global properties file.
The audit.enabled property (which is set to true by default) provides a way to globally enable or disable the auditing framework. However, enabling this property does not necessarily result in the generation of audit data. To enable generation of audit data that you can view in Share or the log files, you will need to enable the audit.alfresco-access.enabled property.
To enable auditing add the following settings to the tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco-global.properties file:
### Auditing config
audit.enabled = true
audit.alfresco-access.enabled=true
### Enabling sub-actions
# Enable the auditing of sub-actions. Normally disabled as these values are
# not normally needed by audit configurations, but may be useful to
# developers
#audit.alfresco-access.sub-actions.enabled=true
Once changes to the global properties file have been saved, you will need to restart the SkyVault server, for auditing to be fully enabled.
