Is there any way to see which user created a library?

I've been getting the overload protection warning in PRTG and the logs are pointing towards libraries created by an account with a changed password.

To avoid having to delete all my libraries and recreate them all with a valid account would be nice to be able to identify which libraries are causing the issue.

Thanks in advance.

Open up your configuration file (usually C:\ProgramData\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor\PRTG Configuration.dat ) and search for the library name, for example: 

<name>
 Testlibrary
</name>

The OwnerID is the ID of the user that created it. Then search for
<user id="the-user-id"> to get to the user. I know, a bit tedious, we're currently searching for ways to simplify this :)

Thanks Stephan,

I'll try that and recreate the appropriate libraries.

Hi,

since one of the last releases there is a new feature - histiory of objects like libraries.

So if you go to libraries and then to the 3 quickbuttons on the right upper corner you can select the "history".

There you see who added or deleted a library.

Best Regards,
