IBM Content Manager, Version 8.5.0.3             

Logging item type events

Logging is important, for example, because it tracks records needed for audit and security reasons.

To log item type events:
  1. Click the Logging tab.
  2. Select one or more check boxes to specify whether the library server logs an event when an item is created, read, updated, or deleted.
  3. Select Content retrieval to enable event logging upon retrieval of content from the resource manager. This check box is available for document or resource item types only. When a user attempts to retrieve a whole or partial object from the resource manager, the event is logged to the system event table. This includes requests to export the object to third-party servers and requests to retrieve stream metadata to play in VideoCharger.
    Restriction: When the library server requests the object from the resource manager for text-indexing purposed, the records will not be logged into the system event table.

This feature uses event code 531 to log object retrievals from an enabled resource manager. You can view the event codes in the ICMSTITEMEVENTS table.
