When are audit message generated?

Contributors netapp-lhalbert

Audit messages are generated each time an object is ingested, retrieved, or deleted. You can identify these transactions in the audit log by locating S3 API-specific audit messages.

Audit messages are linked through identifiers specific to each protocol.

Protocol Code

Linking S3 operations

S3BK (bucket), S3KY (key), or both

Linking Swift operations

WCON (container), WOBJ (object), or both

Linking internal operations

CBID (object's internal identifier)

Timing of audit messages

Because of factors such as timing differences between grid nodes, object size, and network delays, the order of audit messages generated by the different services can vary from that shown in the examples in this section.
