Vault - Audit Log Files

In order to provide access for Andrew Nolte to Autodesk Vault Audit Log files the following configuration changes have been made to the Vault server (pbr-vault-b1)

The location that the logs files are stored on the vault server are C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\VaultServer\FileStore

The location of the audit log files have been redirected to E:\auditlogs by modifying C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Vault Server YYYY\Server\Web\Service\web.config below is an excerpt of the file that shows the section that has been edited. (a copy of the original file has been saved in the same directory named web_old.config)

<audit>
      <logging>
        <add key="basefilename" value="E:\auditlogs\auditlog" />
        <add key="logfileextension" value=".txt" />
        <add key="dateformat" value="-yyyyMMdd" />
        <add key="keepnumberdays" value="-1" />
      </logging>
</audit>

So now the Audit Logs are redirected to E:\auditlogs

This folder will maintain the last 31 days of log files (1 file per day) 

A file share has been created on pbr-vault-b1 \\pbr-vault-b1\auditlogs  this references the above location on the vault server
