Enabling and Disabling Auditing
Enabling Auditing
Since policies define if events are recorded, in order to enable auditing for certain kinds of events the User needs to save certain policies with certain configurations. To save policies, follow the steps below:
- Start the server. Login to the MQ dashboard.
- Go to Audit Manager.
- Go to Configure Audit Policies. Select Audit Events to be recorded such as Authentication, Authorization or Security Database Modification. By default all policies are passive.
- Select Action -> Modify Audit Storage Policy. Details of the events recorded may be defined through this step, as shown below.
The figure above illustrates recording the addition/deletion of events. This step can be repeated for each different event to be recorded.
This step maybe repeated when a user wishes to edit a policy that is active,
Disabling Auditing
To disable auditing certain events, follow Steps 1 to 4 of the section above and instead of modifying the policy, select the De-activate Storage Policy option.
This action deletes the storage policy.
