Hello,
I am curious how to audit user actions in oVirt web interface. From
engine.log we are able to extract when user logged in, when he updated
vnicProfile and so, but we can not get exact changes (behavior).
Right now I can get logs like:
2013-12-05 16:35:46,270 INFO
[org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector]
(ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-6) Correlation ID: 7e60ae1, Call Stack: null,
Custom Event ID: -1, Message: Interface nic1 (VirtIO) was updated for VM
test.test.org. (User: user1)
But it would be nice to get logs like:
2013-12-05 16:35:46,270 INFO
[org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector]
(ajp--127.0.0.1-8702-6) Correlation ID: 7e60ae1, Call Stack: null,
Custom Event ID: -1, Message: Interface nic1 (VirtIO) was updated for VM
test.test.org *from secure_vlan to unsecure_vlan*. (User: user1)
My point is to have a feature which can give us possibility to construct
exact user behavior and action in managing oVirt. It could be useful not
even in hunting bugs, but primary in security problem hunting.
Thank you.

Is this something you could use https://<your engine host>/api/events for?

Great, I did not
know about this page, it is better(formated) source
than logs, but it still has the same issue. I can get info about what
happened, but not exact info about what was done.

than logs, but it still has the same issue. I can get info about what
happened, but not exact info about what was done.
just btw, this is the "events" log from the webadmin.
it covers actions done by users, not content of the edit operation
(something piotr started looking into).
with the move of the gui to work over the rest api, maybe just auditing
the api payload for these actions would be good enough?

If I can have an suggestion, we discus audit log and for our siem it
would be great format like:
user: user1 action: powered off vm: VM1.test.com host: ovirt.test.com
user: user1 action: logged in
user: user1 action: initiated console session VM: VM5.test.com
user: user1 action: changed network interface detail: secure_vlan to
insecure_vlan on vnic1 vm: testserver.test.com
I focused on modifications and used json for it looking like:
{ object='objectName'propertyName='name' oldValue='previousValue'
newValue='newValue'}
You could have multiple properties modified, removed and created. What do you think about
this format?

You could have multiple properties modified, removed and created. What do you think
about
this format?
This format looks great. If you need further testing we can help.
Thanks.
