Viewing DWS Console's Operation Logs

Cloud Trace Service (CTS) can record non-query operations on the DWS console to ensure that no invalid or unauthorized operations are performed, enhancing service security management.

Enabling CTS

A tracker will be automatically created after CTS is enabled. All traces recorded by CTS are associated with a tracker. Currently, only one tracker can be created for each account.

  1. Log in to the CTS console.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Tracker List.
  3. Enable CTS.

    If you are a first-time CTS user and do not have any created trackers in the tracker list, enable CTS first. For details, see Enabling CTS in the Cloud Trace Service Getting Started.

    If you have enabled CTS, the system has automatically created a management tracker. Only one management tracker can be created and it cannot be deleted. You can also manually create a data tracker. For details, see "Tracker Management" > "Creating a Tracker" in the Cloud Trace Service User Guide.

Viewing Traces

  1. Log in to the CTS console.
  2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Trace List.
  3. Click the search box above the trace list, set filter criteria, and view the trace.

    The following filters are available:

    Table 1 Trace parameters

    Parameter

    Description

    Trace Name

    If you select this option, you also need to specify a trace name.

    Trace Source

    Select DWS.

    Resource Type

    Select All resource types or specify a resource type.

    Resource Name

    If you select this option, you also need to enter a specific resource name.

    Resource ID

    If you select this option, you also need to select or enter a specific resource ID.

    Operator

    Select a specific operator (a user rather than a tenant).

    Trace ID

    If you select this option, you also need to select or enter a specific trace ID.

    Trace Status

    Select All trace statuses, normal, warning, or incident.

    Enterprise Project ID

    If you select this option, you also need to select or enter a specific enterprise project ID.

    Access Key ID

    If you select this option, you also need to select or enter a specific access key ID.

    Figure 1 Querying traces

  4. Click the name of the trace to be viewed. A window is displayed, showing the trace details.

    For details about key fields of a CTS trace, see "Trace References" > "Trace Structure" and "Trace References" > "Example Traces" in Cloud Trace Service User Guide.

Disabling the Audit Log Function

If you want to disable the audit log function, disable the tracker in CTS.

  1. Log in to the CTS console.
  2. Disable the audit log function by disabling the tracker. To enable the audit log function again, you only need to enable the tracker.

    For details about how to enable or disable a tracker, see Disabling or Enabling a Tracker in the Cloud Trace Service User Guide.

Key Operations

With CTS, you can record operations associated with DWS for later query, audit, and backtrack operations. There are many DWS cluster operation events, but the table below only includes some frequently audited operations. The creation and deletion of automated snapshots are not performed by users, therefore not recorded in audit logs.
