Logging and Reporting Using Nsure Audit

NsureTM Identity Manager is instrumented to use Novell® Nsure Audit for auditing and reporting.

Nsure Audit is a collection of technologies providing monitoring, logging, reporting and notification capabilities. Through integration with Nsure Audit, Identity Manager provides detailed information about the current and historical status of driver and engine activity. This information is provided by a set of preconfigured reports, standard notification services, and user-defined data logging.

You can monitor real-time Identity Manager events, send e-mail notifications for any Identity Manager event, and generate reports of Identity Manager activity using Nsure Audit.

The types of messages sent to Nsure Audit are controlled using plug-ins similar to those provided with the Reporting and Notification Service (RNS). Additional levels are added to these plug-ins, to select the type of operations or debug information you would like to track, such as status, add entry, search, and so on.


Reporting and Notification Service

Reporting and Notification Service (RNS) is deprecated, though the engine continues to process RNS functions if you are currently using RNS. You should plan to move to Nsure Audit, as Nsure Audit expands the functionality provided by RNS, and RNS might no longer be supported in a future release of Identity Manager. For RNS documentation, see the DirXML 1.1a Administration Guide.
