Function

The AUDIT service is responsible for the management of the individual objects' audit trails. Those entries are stored in a separate database table.
>> Database Schema

Each action that is applied to an object triggers the creation of a new entry in the object's audit trail. As of 2022 Winter, this behavior can be adjusted by configuration (see below).
>> Audit Trail - an "Object's History"

In order to allow the creation of custom audit entries by a custom service that is running inside the yuuvis® Momentum cluster, the following internal endpoint can be used.
>> POST /audit/api/dms/objects/custom

If an object is deleted, all audit entries are deleted as well.

Configuration

The yuuvis® Momentum configuration files for the operation in the Kubernetes cluster are stored on the Git Server configured in the system. In order to change the configuration of a service, you need to access the Git repository. 

Service-specific Parameters

ParameterTypeDefault ValueDescription

metric.storage.recalculateIfOlderThanInSeconds (as of 2023 Spring)

Integer-1

Controls the automated recalculation of the storage metric.

If the value is  -1, there is no automated recalculation. It has to be triggered via the DELETE /api/system/metrics/{metric} endpoint.

If any value > 0 is configured, it is considered as time in seconds between two automated recalculation processes. As soon as the specified time is passed after the previous recalculation process, a new recalculation process is triggered.

High Database Workload

We do not recommend to activate the automated recalculation as no storage metric can be retrieved during the processing time.

metric.storage.recalculateIfLastProgressOlderThanInSeconds (as of 2023 Spring)

Integer  3600

Controls the behavior of the storage metric recalculation processing in fail situations like, e.g., an unavailable service.

The configured value is considered as maximum time in seconds that the process waits for progress in the database. The database reports a progress after the recalculation for one tenant is done. If the database does not report ongoing progress for a time period that exceeds the configured value, the recalculation is restarted.
