OpenTP1 Version 7 Operation
Audit logs are output to the destination specified by the log_audit_path in the log service definition, using a file rotation system. The files are output to the following destinations by default:
Audit log information is output to the audit log file until the file reaches the size specified in the log_audit_size operand of the log service definition. The number of generations of audit log files that are created is determined by the log_audit_count operand in the log service definition.
The following figure shows the flow of audit log acquisition under a file rotation system. In this example, the value of the log_audit_count operand is 4.
Figure 3-5 Audit log acquisition by file rotation
When the number of files exceeds the value specified for the log_audit_count operand, the oldest backup file is deleted.
When an error occurs that causes audit log output to fail, a message reporting this fact is output to standard error output and syslog.
If a process executed by a user who is not root or an OpenTP1 system administrator results in the creation of a new audit log file, the user who executed the process becomes the owner of the new file.
