Control display of events

To turn off the display of the Events icon on the main menu, and to prevent the user from accessing the Events view:

• Remove all event privileges from the user role.

To allow users to display events from their own tenant only:

• Assign the Display all events for current enterprise privilege to the user role. This is a default privilege for the cloud user and enterprise admin roles.

If an administrator can switch enterprises, to enable them to view events for all enterprises:

• Assign the Display all events privilege. This is a default privilege for the cloud admin role only.

By default, for performance reasons, Abiquo displays 7 days worth of events. To display earlier events, users should search for events with a start date.

To control the number of days of events that Abiquo displays:

1. On the API server, edit the abiquo.properties file

2. Set the following property to another value as required

   abiquo.events.list.daysoffset=7

3. Restart the Tomcat server
