Use the access details reports to view the details of access events on selected files or folders or by selected users. Two types of Access Details reports are available for selection:
Access Details report for users or groups
Use this report to get detailed accesses by one or more users or by members of one or more groups during the selected time window. Optionally, you can also include one or more users, as an input parameter for this report to display only the accesses by the selected users.
Access Details report for paths
Use this report to get details of accesses on one or more files or folders during the selected time window. Optionally, you can also include one or more users, as an input parameter for this report, to get accessess of the selected users on the selected data resources.
Note the following about activity information captured by the Access Details reports:
Data Insight does not expand built-in groups like Everyone or Authenticated Users. Authenticated Users group is not a true Active Directory group. Users are added to this group dynamically as they authenticate and log in to a domain. Since this is a dynamic group, Data Insight does not get membership information for this group during an Active Directory scan. Thus, activity information about such users and groups is not captured in these reports even if these groups to users or groups are selected when configuring the reports.
Data Insight captures the IP address of the source machine (the location from which activity is generated) only in the case of NetApp CIFS and EMC CIFS paths. For rest of the devices such as Windows File Server, SharePoint, NFS paths, the Access Details report returns the IP address as 0.0.0.0.
At this time, Data Insight does not relate an Permission change event with a specific user. Thus, when configuring an Access Details for Paths report, Permission Change events are not reported if you select a specific user or group.
To get information about all Permission Change events, you must select
> option when configuring the report. If you do not make any selection on the tab, Data Insight creates the report for all users by default.
