Audit Logging


Use this tab to specify the size and location of CASP logs on this node.

Fields

Log Size
Maximum size (in bytes) of the secondary log (the default is 1,048,576; the maximum value is 2,147,483,647; the minimum value is 65,536). This number determines when the audit logging utility (ALU) stops writing to the current log unit and starts writing to the next log unit of the same secondary log.

Log Number
The number of log units allowed in a circular log (the default is 3; the maximum value is 2,147,483,647; the minimum value is 1). When writing to the log, this value determines when the ALU wraps from the last log unit to the first log unit in a secondary log. You may want to use a larger number here if you are using a small log size value.
Note: This number is ignored for linear logging.

Logging Style
Whether this node should use a linear (the default) or circular logging style for secondary logs. The circular style imposes a limit on the total volume of a secondary log, but it may cause some information to be omitted from the log if the source of the data exceeds the log’s capacity. The linear style imposes no volume restriction; the ALU creates as many log units as necessary to accommodate all of the source data.

Log Prefix (OS/390 only)
DSNAME prefix for log units on OS/390.
