Issues regarding changelog

[jonashauge]

Hmm, my best suggestion will be to add an extra column (cObjectName?) in the changelog table where you record the subnet/ip of 'cid' as a varchar. Then if 'cid' is gone as the ip/subnet was deleted, then print the value of the new column in italic (and no link). Then the current functionality is kept and changes with deletion will be shown. If someone can think of a better solution, feel free to comment :-)

Another finding regarding changelog. If you edit an object and push the edit button without changing any value, then an empty changelog i written. As no change has been done, I would suggest to skip writing anything to the changelog.

Hi, Well changelog is actually there, it is just not picked up by the query, as id of original object is not available anymore. Dont know how to change that.

Will add for other objects aswell.

+1 for the suggestion of @jonashauge as this seems the best solution. One of my clients is working with Infoblox IPAM and there you can always trace who for example deleted a subnet. The changelog in there is pure text and not relying on any other information in the database as far as I can see.

For auditing a changelog that has no relational information (entries made as pure text at the time of the changes) would be a big plus.

I am missing changelog for subnets as well. You would make me happy if this could be in 1.4. It's related in a way to #800.

+1. This log will be very usefull for us too.

I noticed this too. And to track who deleted a subnet, I had to check the main log file. Click the wrench "Show Tools Menu" > under "Tools" > "Log Files".

Here you can download the logs in xls format and find who may have deleted a subnet. I've recently run into the 65536 row limit in excel so this feature is also lacking now. Perhaps xlsx can be used as the export format?

I just brought it up today in issue: ChangeLog viewing and row limits #4092
