how to know who enabled or disabled the alert rules in solarwinds

Hi All,

how to know who enabled or disabled the alert rules in solarwinds. I could see some of the alert rules are newly enabled in my instance. I am confused to find who enabled it. Please let me know where I can check this information

  • In the ALERTS & ACTIVITY menu, click Message Center.

    Uncheck the boxes except for Audit Events and select a time period. In the Action type dropdown, you can select Alert enabled or Alert disabled.

    Audit events are kept for 365 days by default.

  • This query could take awhile as it will pull all the events but this will give you every instance. You could create a custom report or resource to display. 

    SELECT AuditEventID, TimeLoggedUtc, AccountID, ActionTypeID, AuditEventMessage, NetworkNode, NetObjectID, NetObjectType, DetailsUrl, DisplayName, ObservationTimestamp, ObservationRowVersion, ObservationSeverity, ObservationSeverityName, Description, InstanceType, Uri, InstanceSiteId


    FROM Orion.AuditingEvents


    Where AuditEventMessage LIKE '%disabled alert%' OR AuditEventMessage LIKE '%enabled alert%'
