I've enabled both plugins as stated here:

But for some reason, I still have no data available ... does this require extra changes, because this is an year old? 🙂

I'm using ZAPI Collector.

Changing to REST does not make any difference 🤔

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 5:55 AM

#

@lament ridge Audit log is only available via Rest collector. Could you share NABox support bundle https://upload.nabox.org/nygu-vyno-cewe ?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 6:43 AM

#

earnest light <@526468670981931019> Audit log is only available via Rest collector. Could you...

Yes, I switched to REST fully also later.

#

my uploaded filename: nabox-logs-2026-03-31_064408.tgz

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 6:44 AM

#

Thanks checking

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 6:51 AM

#

Oh, I see them now after some hours 🙂

#

But only AuditLog is working
Not ChangeLog

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 6:51 AM

#

Once enabled only events post enable will show up.

#

Ok I'll check related to ChangeLog

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 6:52 AM

#

I've deleted vols and 1 svm yesterday.

#

OT Question: is it possible to let NAbox/Harvest collect everything that is possible via REST by default and only disable what I really dont need? basically reverse config 🙂

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 6:55 AM

#

It is not possible. It is driven via templates.

#

As per logs, I see your custom templates are not loaded at all. Only default ones.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:04 AM

#

Doing this for first time and I simply followed the guides with provided links ... do i have to enable it somewhere else something?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:07 AM

#

Your last restart was at Mar 30 22:08:50
Have you made changelog changes after that?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:09 AM

#

yes.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:10 AM

#

Ok. Please restart once more and then try

#

If it still doesn't work then share updated logs

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:11 AM

#

Sure.

#

I have enabled these config also in default.yaml ... Guess I can remove it from here?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:13 AM

#

Yes that is not needed

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:15 AM

#

But my custom.yaml and its content is correct, right?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:15 AM

#

Yes that looks correct

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:16 AM

#

Just restarted again, restored defaults.yaml how it was; so only custom.yaml is active (should be) 🙂

#

I guess simple test would be creating a volume and deleting it?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:17 AM

#

Create a volume and delete it after 5 mins

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:19 AM

#

alright, just created one, will confirm when I see the volume in dashboard

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:19 AM

#

Changelog plugin runs every 3 minutes, so if a volume created and deleted in between these 3 mins, it wouldn’t detect it. However, the audit log should capture it.

You can share the support bundle after 10–15 minutes to the same location, and I can check whether the custom.yaml templates were loaded correctly.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:19 AM

#

I should see this somewhere in Dashboards if templates are loaded?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:20 AM

#

You can try deleting after 5 mins for changelog to capture it.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:20 AM

#

lament ridge I should see this somewhere in Dashboards if templates are loaded?

It will be in logs which templates were loaded.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:20 AM

#

Where is the logfile path?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:21 AM

#

It will be in container logs

#

You can download support bundle and search for lines like below

cat containers.log| grep -i best | grep -i rest:volume\

#

That should tell you the path loaded for Volume object template.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:23 AM

#

Can't see "create" in AuditLog either in Dashboard.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:24 AM

#

It may take 4-5 mins before it to appear in dashboard

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:24 AM

#

Shared my support bundle again: nabox-logs-2026-03-31_064408.tgz

#

just in case.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:25 AM

#

lament ridge Shared my support bundle again: nabox-logs-2026-03-31_064408.tgz

Is this same old or new support bundle?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:25 AM

#

should be new one?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:25 AM

#

Ok. Name is same as the old one.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:25 AM

#

Oh no, sorry

#

nabox-logs-2026-03-31_072537.tgz

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:26 AM

#

I see it

#

Still same issue.

It's not loading from your custom one

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:28 AM

#

Is there something else that need to be configured to tell "use custom" also?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:30 AM

#

@ionic solstice Any idea if something has changed in NABox?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:31 AM

#

This means my AuditLog is actually was showing because I've enabled in "default.yaml" before 🙂

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:32 AM

#

I see it enabled in latest logs

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:33 AM

#

I can see my testvolume is in grafana visibile, but no AuditLog or ChangeLog :/

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:34 AM

#

Do you have AuditLog still enabled in default.yaml?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:34 AM

#

no

#

cat default.yaml | grep AuditLog

AuditLog: audit_log.yaml

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:35 AM

#

ok, As per logs it is loaded

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:35 AM

#

its disabled but here it shows wrong due to format style.

#

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:36 AM

#

My NABox is down to check locally.

#

How have you created volume? via Rest API?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:37 AM

#

Its fine, not so urgent ... maybe @ionic solstice knows something if something has changed.
My setup is done fresh; not an upgrade or something 🙂

#

I created test volume via CLI on Storage directly.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:40 AM

#

Could you share the CLI, You have used to create volume. I can check locally

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:40 AM

#

Its a simple command 😄
vol create -vserver netapp-proxmox -volume test_nabox -state online -size 1GB -space-guarantee none -aggregate aggr1

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:40 AM

#

Let me check in my dev setup

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:42 AM

#

Wait, do I need to enable these also in my custom files?
plugins:

ChangeLog:
- track:
  - node
  - volume
  - svm
  - style
  - type
  - aggr
  - state
  - status
  - junction_path
  - size_total

#

source: https://netapp.github.io/harvest/26.02/plugins/#changelog

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:42 AM

#

Not needed. They are if you want to customize ChangeLog plugin itself

#

We are at a stage where default itself isn't working 🙂

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:45 AM

#

I hope my folderpath is correct? I dont need that "cdot" subfolder like zapi?
/etc/nabox/harvest/user/rest/9.14.0

vs when using zapi its
/etc/nabox/harvest/user/zapi/cdot/9.8.0

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:45 AM

#

Worked fine for me in my dev box. I got below metric

audit_log{datacenter="u2",cluster="umeng-aff300-01-02",application="ssh",location="10.136.197.221",user="admin",op="create",object="volume",volume="test_nabox",svm="osc"} 1774943081

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:46 AM

#

can you share folderpath with custom.yaml content once?

#

sometimes .yaml is very strict with lint also when parsing configurations 🙂

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:47 AM

#

Your audit log is loaded so not a yaml issue.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:48 AM

#

Then I should see my test vol creation 🤔 but I'm not.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:49 AM

#

What time did you create this volume?
I have logs till time

#

lament ridge alright, just created one, will confirm when I see the volume in dashboard

#

at this time; i created it.

#

its been almost 40min now.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:53 AM

#

okay support bundle latest logs time is Mar 31 07:16:02
so that should have it?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:54 AM

#

I can create later one; can wait for some time 🙂

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:55 AM

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:55 AM

#

only AuditLog or also ChangeLog?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:55 AM

#

ChangeLog is never active so far in logs

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:56 AM

#

which is weird, because its all setup by the guide 😄

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:56 AM

#

@ionic solstice says he'll look into this. There may be a file system issue in setup.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 7:56 AM

#

and it uses same custom.yaml file.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 7:56 AM

#

He expects an active folder also in support bundle which is missing.

#

The AuditLog template is loading. From the logs, I only see two collections after the restart. It’s possible that you created the volume some time after this restart. Could you upload a fresh support bundle?

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 8:03 AM

#

nabox-logs-2026-03-31_080307.tgz

at this stage, it should have detected a volume offline/delete of that one test-volume I've created 🙂

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 8:06 AM

#

OK, there have been a couple of restarts since the last logs, and I can see that AuditLog isn’t loaded at all, so it makes sense that we don’t have the data. The issue is that our custom changes aren’t being applied for either Changelog or AuditLog.

#

@ionic solstice can help at this stage to check on NABox side.

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 8:10 AM

#

Thanks for checking! Will wait for a response then.

ionic solstice Mar 31, 2026, 8:43 AM

#

So, it seems you don't have a /etc/nabox/harvest/nabox folder ?

#

please create that directory mkdir /etc/nabox/harvest/nabox and restart harvest dc restart havrest

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 8:52 AM

#

there is no folder, true

#

done.

#

Its a full scratch setup in Proxmox Environment using your Guide 🙂
just a suggestion, update documentation where to write the network config and need to set hostname and update /etc/hosts ... will be very helpful for beginners 😉

#

I know this from past, but for new comers who never worked with networkd will be a pain.

#

Now, I see my changes 🥳

#

Thank you very much! I wonder why that folder was not created with installation?

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 10:04 AM

#

Nice!! Thanks @ionic solstice

lament ridge Mar 31, 2026, 10:05 AM

#

Is there a way to see all changes in AuditLog not only volume related? 🙂 just curious.

earnest light Mar 31, 2026, 10:06 AM

#

Currently only support is for volume. Please open an issue if you like us to monitor other objects via this plugin.
