How to get the user last log-in details from CAPM - CA Performance Management

Environment

Any CAPM Version

Resolution

To support security auditing, Single Sign-On logs details about user login activity to a file. Each time a user attempts to log in to the 

Performance Center

 login page, SSO logs an entry in the audit log.  If SSO redirects the user to a SAML2 server to log in or re-authenticate, SSO only logs successful logins.  Check the log to verify user activity. The log contains one line per login.

The following details are written to the log per login request:

• Time and date stamp when the user logged in
• Product code (for example, pc for Performance Center)
• Username
• Whether the Remember Me option was selected
• Single Sign-On version
• The remote host IP address

Follow these steps:

• Log in to the server where a CA data source product is installed.
• Open a command prompt, and cd to the following directory:

  [InstallationDirectory]/PerformanceCenter/sso/logs

  The audit log is saved in the following location on Windows servers:

  [InstallationDirectory]\Portal\SSO\logs.
• Enter dir to see the contents of the directory.

   

  The filename of the log file is SingleSignOnAuditLogyyyy-mm-dd.log.
• Enter the name of the audit file you want to view.

   

  The file opens in the local text editor application.
