Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Technical Overview

Flat File Format

The default flat file format is the W3C Extended Log Format (ELF). OpenSSO Enterprise uses this format to record the default fields in each log record. See Recording Events for a list of default fields and their descriptions. Example 15–2 illustrates an authentication log record formatted for a flat file. The fields are in this order: Time, Data, ModuleName, MessageID, Domain, ContextID, LogLevel, LoginID, IPAddr, LoggedBy, and HostName.
