AUDIT LOG PURGE
This screen allows you to selectively view and remove audit entries
from the audit log stored in the GMS. There are several arguments
that enable the user to query the database for specific information
based on the time an action was inserted into the audit log, the
host the audited operation was executed from, the host that the
audited operation was executed on, and the DSM user name of the
operator responsible for the audited operation. Any arguments that
are specified are combined with logical ands to form a single search
expresssion.
View Audit Log
Executing view without arguments prints all of the audit
information stored in the GMS ordered by the time which an action
took place.
Executing view with an argument to Begin Time, selects and displays
the audit log entries that match audited operations executed from
and including the time specified by a time-string in Enlighten Time
Format. The time-string can represent an absolute time, such as
Apr 15 1998 at 11:59pm, or it can represent a relative time in the
past, such as '1 day' or '2 weeks' ago. Note that the command
operates in the time zone set for the system.
Executing view with an argument to End Time, selects and displays
the audit log entries that match audited operations executed up to
the time specified by a time-string in Enlighten Time Format. The
time-string can represent an absolute time, such as Apr 15 1998
at 11:59pm, or it can represent a relative time in the past, such
as '1 day' or '2 weeks' ago. Note that the command operates in the
time zone set for the system.
Executing view with an argument to User selects and prints the audit
log entries that match audited operations executed by an
EnlightenDSM user. Multiple users may be specified by including a
space between each user.
Executing view with an argument to Xenln Host, selects and prints
the audit log entries that match audited operations executed from
the Xenln host. Multiple Xenln Hosts may be specified by including
a space between each host.
Executing view with an argument to Target Host, selects and prints
the audit log entries that match audited operations executed on
the managed host. A managed host is a machine that runs the
EnlightenDSM agents. Multiple Target Hosts may be specified by
including a space between each host.
Delete Audit Log
Executing delete without arguments deletes all of the audit
information stored in the GMS.
Executing view with an argument to Begin Time, deletes the audit
log entries that match audited operations executed from and
including the time specified by a time-string in Enlighten Time
Format. The time-string can represent an absolute time, such as
Apr 15 1998 at 11:59pm, or it can represent a relative time in the
past, such as '1 day' or '2 weeks' ago. Note that the command
operates in the time zone set for the system.
Executing delete with an argument to End Time, deletes the audit
log entries that match audited operations executed up to the time
specified by a time-string in Enlighten Time Format. The
time-string can represent an absolute time, such as Apr 15 1998
at 11:59pm, or it can represent a relative time in the past, such
as '1 day' or '2 weeks' ago. Note that the command operates in the
time zone set for the system.
Executing delete with an argument to User, deletes the audit log
entries that match audited operations executed by an EnlightenDSM
user. Multiple users may be specified by including a space between
each user.
Executing delete with an argument to Xenln Host, deletes the audit
log entries that match audited operations executed from the Xenln
host. Multiple Xenln Hosts may be specified by including a space
between each host.
Executing delete with an argument to Target Host, deletes the audit
log entries that match audited operations executed on the managed
host. A managed host is a machine that runs the EnlightenDSM agents.
Multiple Xenln Hosts may be specified by including a space between
each host.
CAUTION: Be careful when deleting without any arguments. ALL audit
information stored in the GMS will be deleted.
