Track changes to "Enable Monitor and Audit" option

User_BZ5TP

Hello,

We need to track if there are any changes on the "Enable Monitor and Audit" option (if it's been disabled at any point in time), for SOX / audit purposes.

Do you know if this is possible and how?

Thank you!

Hi @User_BZ5TP ,

Which version of Publisher are you using?

If you are using a recent on-premise version (OBIEE 12c or OAS), you can track changes to the value of the MONITORING_ENABLED property in the xmlp-server-config.xml config file located in the $ORACLE_DOMAIN/config/fmwconfig/biconfig/bipublisher/Admin/Configuration folder.

If you are using the cloud version, you don't have access to the config files in the file system and you need a workaround. For instance, you can schedule a dummy report to run daily and check the Audit tables for data about that report.
