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

Log on to the master server.
Open the following directory:
Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd
UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd
Run the following command:
```
nbemmcmd -listsettings -machinename masterserver
```
Where masterserver is the master server in question.
The following configuration settings are listed:
- 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.
