Audit alert notification for audit failures
The Alert Notification option is located in the status bar at the bottom of the NetBackup Administration Console. If it is configured to do so, the option can indicate when an auditable action has failed to create an audit record. For example, if a policy attribute is changed but the NetBackup Audit Manager (nbaudit) is not running.
To configure Audit alert notification, right-click the Alert Notification option in the status bar:
Table: Audit alert notification settings
Turn on | When it is set to Turn on, a pop-up message displays in the following situation: Auditing is enabled, but an auditable action is performed in the NetBackup Administration Console and has failed to create an audit record. A pop-up message appears to alert the administrator about the failure. |
Blink | When it is set to Blink, the option blinks in the event of an auditing failure. Click the option to display the failure message. |
Turn off | When it is set to Turn off, an auditing failure does not display a notification. The option appears as gray. Note: Turn off does not mean that auditing is disabled. Auditing continues, but audit failure messages in the NetBackup Administration Console are disabled. |
