Management Audit Log

The Management audit log provides an audit history of configuration changes made in AMC by administrators, showing when changes were made and by which administrator. Configuration changes are either active or pending:

• Active configuration: Configuration items that precede the log message Applied configuration changes are ones that have been applied and are currently active.
• Pending changes: As changes are made, they are saved to disk but not immediately applied. In the Management audit log, these pending changes follow the Applied configuration changes message and can be discarded. See Discarding Pending Configuration Changes to find out how to do so.

   The View Logs page displays.

2. Select Management audit log from the Log file drop-down menu.
