Obsolete setting in provisioning 

The Audit Log Space Allocation setting in Provisioning no longer has a practical impact under the current system design.

Background

Before b2205:

• The default storage limit for audit reports (Change Audit + Read Audit) was 1 GB.
• If the storage exceeded 1 GB, customers could request an increase (e.g., up to 5 GB) via the Audit Log Space Allocation setting in Provisioning.

After b2205:

• The audit log storage limit was increased to 10 GB by default for all customers.
• This 10 GB limit is now the minimum effective storage, regardless of any previous Provisioning settings.

Current Behavior

• The Audit Log Space Allocation setting still exists in Provisioning.
• However, modifying this setting does not impact or change the actual audit log storage limit.
• The system continues to enforce a minimum storage limit of 10 GB.
• The Audit Log Space Allocation setting is not technically deprecated, but it is no longer meaningful or effective in influencing audit log storage behavior in the current design.
• Customers do not need to adjust this setting, as the system-managed storage limit (10 GB) applies automatically.

NOTE: There are plans to deprecate and remove this functionality from provisioning in a future roadmap update. This KBA will be revised once the product team confirms the timelines.
