ALTER AUDIT POOL Command
Members of either security group can execute this command.
$vol.subvol
specifies the audit pool for which disk allocation parameters are to be changed.
The audit pool is designated by its volume and subvolume name. If $vol.subvol
is omitted, the current audit pool is assumed.
file-spec
specifies the disk allocation parameters for the disk files that make up this audit
pool. Any file-spec not designated in this command is left unchanged at its
current setting. The file-spec values are:
EXTENTSIZE ( primary-ext [ , secondary-ext ] )
MAXEXTENTS n
MAXFILES n
EXTENTSIZE ( primary-ext, [ , secondary-ext ] )
specifies the primary and secondary extents, in 2048-byte disk pages, for each
audit file in the audit pool being added. Both primary-ext and
secondary-ext are decimal integer values. The smallest extent allowed is
two disk pages.
MAXEXTENTS n
specifies the maximum number of disk file extents for each audit file. n is a
decimal integer value from 16 through 978.
MAXFILES n
specifies the maximum number of files that can be allocated in this audit pool.
n is a decimal integer value from 2 through 10,000.
Considerations
If you lower the value of MAXFILES, the audit service attempts to delete enough
released audit files to reach the new MAXFILES value. If not enough released files
are available for deletion, the audit service deletes as many released files as
possible. In this instance, the new MAXFILES value is set to the user-specified
value, and the additional files are deleted when they are released.
You can use ALTER AUDIT POOL to alter the disk allocation parameters for the
secondary audit pool $SYSTEM.SAFE. This audit pool is initially configured with
EXTENTSIZE (128,128), MAXEXTENTS 16, and MAXFILES 2.
