Release notes for the update August, 18 2024

Update Version 4.1.202408161841

New Features

Added the option to manage logger configuration

Logger is a system module that sends information about system events (such as creating an asset) to the external media in the Common Events Format (CEF).

The system supports the following loggers types:

  • Console - Console Logger prints events on the system console when the application is run from the command line. When the application is run on the Linux platforms the events printed on the console are captured in the catalina.out file in the $HOME/web/logs folders.

  • File - File logger prints events in the specified file. File logger supports log file archiving based on several conditions as well as deletion of the old archives.

  • Syslog - Syslog logger streams log records over the network to syslog servers using UDP or TCP protocols.

All loggers support event filtering by tenant or message search conditions.

Logger configuration allows to customize message patterns, metadata sent with the message, file naming pattern and file rotation schedule.

Typical uses of the logger configuration are outlined below:

  • Stream all system events (or events generated by certain tenants) to the external SIEM system.

  • Change location of the log file to the location outside of the installation $HOME directory.

  • Segregate events generated by certain tenants into separate files or separate syslog servers.

  • Enable debug or trace logging for certain modules of the system to troubleshoot certain functionality.

Added the option to deep delete an asset.

Deep delete operation deletes this container and all its child objects in a single operation.

When deep deleting the assets, the operation deletes this selected object and all its links to parent objects as well as the object itself in a single operation. The action cannot be undone.
