Overview

We now have Open-AudIT Community / Professional / Server. Community is as always, free and open source. Professional is a new product. It has most of the Enterprise features. Most commercial users will migrate to this product. Enterprise has some very specific Enterprise features. Combining Roles and LDAP / Active Directory authorization not being the least of them. Baselines and Files are also Enterprise specific.

Open-AudIT v2 has deprecated Groups as a primary method of access control.  It is now Roles based. A user has Roles. Those Roles can perform various actions. The User also has access to a list of Orgs. They can perform the roles actions on items that belong to the Org(s) they have access to.

...

What used to be called queries or reports within Open-AudIT are now split into two different endpoints. The difference being that a Summary uses "group by" in it's SQL and provides the ability to "drill down" through results. A good example being the Installed Software summary. Regular old queries that provide a simple list of things remain the same. By default, all queries are now active. No longer do you need to activate individual queries. Summaries also have a special collection page that shows icons and counts for the other endpoints. By default, the homepage is set to groups, but this can be changed to summaries.

Your Group and Query definitions will need to change. We back them up into the open-audit/other/oa_group_backup.sql file (and oa_report_backup.sql) so you won't lose them. But they won't appear. You'll need to make new ones. If you need a hand, just post here.
