STATUS AUDITTRAIL (Pages 3-261 through 3-267)
Usage Guideline
The STATUS AUDITTRAIL command displays the following items:
•
The name of the audit trail
•
The percentage of audit trail capacity in use
•
The name of the oldest audit-trail file that is not yet ready to be reused or purged
by TMF
•
The reason a file is pinned (retained) on disk
•
One or more audit-trail file names, and an indication of their status
These items are explained next under “Output Displayed.”
If the audit trail is out of space and TMF cannot locate a file for audit trail rollover, it will
stop generating audit information and display the following message with a STATUS
AUDITTRAIL command:
WARNING: Out of audit trail space--TMF CANNOT PROCEED. To
continue, issue ALTER AUDITTRAIL command to add an overflow
volume, add an active volume, or increase FILESPERVOLUME,
IMMEDIATELY.
To recover from this situation, perform one of the following actions:
•
Increase the value of the FILESPERVOLUME attribute:
TMFCOM ALTER AUDITTRAIL {MAT | AUXnn},
FILESPERVOLUME integer
•
Add an active volume to the audit trail configuration:
TMFCOM ALTER AUDITTRAIL {MAT | AUXnn},
ADDACTIVEVOL $volume
•
Add an overflow volume to the audit trail configuration:
TMFCOM ALTER AUDITTRAIL {MAT | AUXnn},
ADDOVERFLOW $volume
Increasing FILESPERVOLUME allocates new audit-trail files on each of the currently
configured active-audit volumes. This is the recommended approach because it
distributes the load of the new files across the active volumes. Use this option only if
the active volumes have sufficient room to accommodate the new files.
