Recording AS Resource Operations

Scenarios

AS can use the Cloud Trace Service (CTS) to record resource operations. CTS can record operations performed on the management console, operations performed by calling APIs, and operations triggered within the cloud system.

If you have enabled CTS, when a call is made to the AS API, the operation will be reported to CTS which will then deliver the operation record to a specified OBS bucket for storage. With CTS, you can record operations associated with AS for later query, audit, and backtrack operations.

Obtaining AS Information in CTS

After you enable CTS in the application system, the system logs the API calling operations performed on AS resources. On the Cloud Trace Service console, you can view operation records for the last 7 days. To obtain more operation records, you can enable the Object Storage Service (OBS) and synchronize operation records to the OBS in real time.

Table 1 lists the AS operations that can be recorded by CTS.

Viewing Audit Logs

  1. Log in to the management console.

  2. Click image1 in the upper left corner to select a region and a project.

  3. Click Service List. Choose Management & Deployment > Cloud Trace Service.

  4. Click Trace List in the navigation pane on the left.

  5. You can use filters to query traces. The following filters are available:

    • Trace Type, Trace Source, Resource Type, and Search By: Select a filter from the drop-down list.

      If you select Resource ID for Search By, specify a resource ID.

      If you select Data for Trace Type, you can only filter traces by tracker.

    • Operator: Select one or more specific operators from the drop-down list.

    • Trace Status: Select All trace statuses, Normal, Warning, or Incident.

    • Time range: In the upper right corner, choose Last 1 hour, Last 1 day, or Last 1 week, or specify a custom time range.

  6. Click image2 to the left of the required trace to expand its details.

  7. Locate the required trace and click View Trace in the Operation column. The trace details are displayed.

CTS Log Entries

Each log entry consists of a trace in JSON format. A log entry indicates an AS API request, including the requested operation, the operation date and time, operation parameters, and information about the user who sends the request. The user information is obtained from the Identity and Access Management (IAM) service.

The following example shows CTS log entries for the CreateScalingPolicy action:
