Controlling Auditing of NonStop Client Events
Controlling Auditing of NonStop Client Events
The Safeguard audit service can record security-relevant events generated by 
NonStop privileged subsystems. These subsystems are known as clients. The audit 
service receives event information from the clients and writes records to the audit trail 
on their behalf. The content and format of audit records vary from one client to another. 
The existence of audit records from clients might also vary from RVU to RVU.
The Safeguard configuration attribute AUDIT-CLIENT-GUARDIAN controls whether 
client events are recorded. Possible values are ON and OFF. Initially, the attribute is 
set to ON.
The Safeguard configuration attribute AUDIT-CLIENT-OSS controls the writing of the 
audit records to the audit trial for these OSS object types:
•
ZSFG-VAL-OBJ-DIRECTORY
•
ZSFG-VAL-OBJ-FIFO
