I.3 Format of output action log data
Data related to audit events is output to the Performance Management action log. Action log data is output to one file for one host. The action log data is output to a file on either of the following hosts:
-
When a service is executed: The data is output to the file on the host on which the service runs.
-
When a command is executed: The data is output to the file on the host on which the command was executed.
The following describes the format of the action log, the output destination, and the items that are output.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Output format
CALFHM x.x,output-item-1=value-1,output-item-2=value-2,...,output-item-n=value-n
(2) Output destination
installation-folder\auditlog\
The output destination for action log data can be changed in the jpccomm.ini file. For details about how to specify the jpccomm.ini file, see I.4 Settings for outputting action log data.
(3) Output items
There are two types of output items:
-
Common output items
Items that are always output by all JP1 products that output action log data
-
Fixed output items
Items that are optionally output by a JP1 product that outputs action log data
