Issue/Introduction

  • The Controller may fail to display user login events within the All Events dashboard.
  • While these events are successfully recorded in the internal system logs, they are not populated or visible in the consolidated Events UI, making it difficult for administrators to audit access through the standard interface.
  • On the controller leader node under the /var/lib/avi/log/authserver.INFO logs, the login events can be seen as below:

Environment

  • VMware AVI Load Balancer
    • 31.1.1

Cause

  • This issue is triggered when a directory within the ALL-EVENTS file structure is inadvertently deleted.
  • This directory is essential for the internal event-propagation mechanism; its absence breaks the synchronization of event data between Controller nodes.
  • Consequently, while the event is captured locally in the logs, it fails to sync to the database that populates the All Events interface.

Resolution

This issue is resolved in version 31.2.1 and 32.1.1.
