[*] IBM Cloud Object Storage (COS) generates global, management, and data events.

  • By default, events that report on global actions such as the creation of a bucket are collected automatically. You can monitor these events through the Activity Tracker instance that is located in the Frankfurt location.

  • Collection of management and data events in your account is optional.

  • You must configure each bucket to enable management events, or management and data events. You cannot enable data events only for a bucket.

    • To monitor management events, you must configure a bucket and specify the Activity Tracker instance where those events will be available for monitoring.
    • To monitor data events, you must select the option Track data events when you associate a bucket with an Activity Tracker instance.
