Modifying and Querying Audit Daemon Attributes

· stostrategy - Specifies the storage strategy when the size of the audit trail file has reached its limit. You can specify either of the following storage strategies:

save
If the specified trail size limit is reached, the audit daemon saves the current trail file to a new file (renaming it to its original name with a timestamp appended at the end of the name). The audit daemon then deletes the contents of the original trail file and continues auditing from the beginning of this file. This is the default value for stostrategy.

wrap
The audit daemon will overwrite the old audit trails.

· state - Indicates whether the audit daemon is servicing audit record logging requests from audit clients. The possible values for this attribute are enabled (default value) or disabled.

You can use dcecp to see the value of these settings, as follows:

dcecp> aud show
{state enabled}
{stostrategy save}
dcecp>

Use the aud modify command to change these attributes.
