Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, engine processes that were not invoked directly by a logged-in user but invoked automatically either by an event or by the time scheduler had the "null@N/A" user name assigned to them in logs. This was confusing for administrators. With this update, the user name "SYSTEM" is assigned to all processes which are not invoked directly by a logged-in user so the log messages are clearer.

Ravi - thoughts?
Comment 3 Oved Ourfali 2015-04-13 07:04:24 UTC 
Removing the needinfo, as I see Martin already fixed that.
Comment 4 Martin Tessun 2015-05-18 14:34:55 UTC 
Is it possible that this issue is related to BZ 1198493

Somehow the messages look very related.
Comment 6 Jiri Belka 2015-06-23 09:40:41 UTC 
ok, ovirt-engine-backend-3.6.0-0.0.master.20150519172219.git9a2e2b3.el6.noarch

inspecting Events and engine.log* doesn't show any reference to 'null@N/A', yo!
