Audit Trail Recovery in File Auditing Mode

When running in file auditing mode, instead of writing to the Siebel File System every time a new Audit Trail file is created, the Siebel application saves Audit Trail files to a file directory on the Object Manager to improve performance. When the Object Manager closes normally, these files are uploaded to the Siebel File System simultaneously.

If the Object Manager exits abnormally, Audit Trail keeps track of which files have been uploaded to the Siebel File System and which ones have not. The next time Audit Trail starts, any files that have not been uploaded are uploaded automatically.
