Known Issues

  1. Currently, Policy based retention for EventDB does not cover two event categories: (a) System events with phCustId = 0, e.g. a FortiSIEM External Integration Error, FortiSIEM process crash etc., and (b) Super/Global customer audit events with phCustId = 3, e.g. audit log generated from a Super/Global user running an adhoc query. These events are purged when disk usage reaches high watermark.

  2. FortiSIEM uses dynamic mapping for Keyword fields to save Cluster state. Elasticsearch needs to encounter some events containing these fields before it can determine their type. For this reason, queries containing group by on any of these fields will fail if Elasticsearch has not seen any event containing these fields. Workaround is to first run a non-group by query with these fields to make sure that these fields have non-null haves.
