Open Stack

It will be great to draft a User Story related to these log analysis, traceability and audit.
This is a hot topic for operators. I remember Symantec has done something related to that as well.

Kenny, you may kick start the story and make it WIP, then we can start contributing.

The user story should also address "user-level" logs (can be a separate user story if necessary).
Most of the OpenStack logs are only accessible to Cloud administrator. 
The Cloud users (for example: the owner of the VM / Heat) will need access to these nova/heat logs for troubleshooting.

Kency (I'm trying to see if we can morph your name to closer to you irc handle here), this is great!

I started the log work group, have lots of info and only a little bandwidth.  We had standing room only at the Austin working group session, and I have some strategies to make some stuff happen.  I am also up on the current state of various efforts.  So, I'd love to have a meeting, virtual or other, on how/where to move forward.

Subject: [Product] User Story Ideas

The OSIC team is working on our roadmap for 2016 and looking to potentially contribute to some initiatives that have already existed around the following topics:

   - Inter-service Log Usability - How do I trace the logs for requests
   that span services?[3][4][5]
   - Auditability - How do I comply with security protocols that require,
   for instance, the ability to store a history of what users interacted with
   a given resource and when?[6]
   - Error Messages - How do I ensure the errors that are presented to
   users and operators in OpenStack are informative and useful?[1][2]

I know these are already existing topics, but I'm wondering if the group has any thoughts to my drafting user stories for them, since AFAIK none exist.

Thoughts? Any additional documentation or description of current work that you would point me to before creating user stories?

Thanks!
