Viewing the current audit settings
To view the current audit configuration, use either the nbemmcmd command on a NetBackup master server or view the settings using OpsCenter.
For directions about how to use OpsCenter to configure auditing, see the NetBackup OpsCenter Administrator's Guide.
To view the current audit settings
- From a command prompt, locate the nbemmcmd command on the master server in the following directory:
On Windows:
Install_path\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd
On UNIX:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd
- Enter the nbemmcmd command using the following syntax:
nbemmcmd -listsettings -machinename masterserver
Where masterserver is the master server in question.
- The output lists many configuration settings. Among them are the following:
AUDIT="ENABLED"
Indicates that auditing is turned on.
AUDIT="DISABLED"
Indicates that auditing is turned off.
AUDIT_RETENTION_PERIOD="90"
Indicates that if auditing is enabled, the records are retained for this length of time (in days) and then deleted. The default audit retention period is 90 days. A value of 0 (zero) indicates that the records are never deleted.
