Consideration
Consideration
Attempts to execute this command are not audited.
Example
This command displays an INFO AUDIT SERVICE report:
=INFO AUDIT SERVICE
NEXTFILE Command
NEXTFILE closes the current audit file and opens the next audit file in the current audit
pool.
If there are any outstanding records to be written to the current audit file, those records
are written before the switch to the next file occurs.
Only members of the SYSTEM-OPERATOR security group can execute this
command.
Considerations
If no available audit files are in the current audit pool when NEXTFILE is executed,
the command fails. It does not switch auditing to the next audit pool if one is
defined. To make an audit file available in the current pool, use the RELEASE
command. To switch to the next audit pool, use the SELECT command to select
the next audit pool as the new current audit pool.
All attempts to execute this command are audited.
Example
This command closes the current audit file and opens the next file in the current
audit pool:
=NEXTFILE
RELEASE Command
RELEASE releases audit files for reuse by the audit service. The audit service releases
the audit file by setting its end-of-file pointer to zero and securing it against access by
all user processes. All audit data in the file is purged, and it is put into service as the
next available file in the audit pool.
