This procedure configures three types of logs: access logs, audit logs, and error logs. The following default settings are not changed:
All logs are enabled and buffered.
Logs are placed in the appropriate /export/home/ds/instances/your-instance/logs/LOG_TYPE directory.
Events are logged at log level 256.
Logs are protected with 600 file permissions.
Access logs are rotated daily.
Error logs are rotated weekly.
The settings in this procedure meet the following requirements:
Audit logs are rotated daily.
Log files that are older than 3 months expire.
All log files use a maximum of 20,000 MBytes of disk space.
A maximum of 100 log files is kept, and each file is at most 500 MBytes.
The oldest logs are deleted if less than 500 MBytes free disk space is available.
Additional information is collected in the error logs.
Configure the access logs.
The LOG_TYPE for access is ACCESS. The syntax for configuring logs is the following:
dsconf set-log-prop LOG_TYPE property:value |
# dsconf set-log-prop ACCESS max-age:3M # dsconf set-log-prop ACCESS max-disk-space-size:20000M # dsconf set-log-prop ACCESS max-file-count:100 # dsconf set-log-prop ACCESS max-size:500M # dsconf set-log-prop ACCESS min-free-disk-space:500M |
Configure the audit logs.
# dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT max-age:3M # dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT max-disk-space-size:20000M # dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT max-file-count:100 # dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT max-size:500M # dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT min-free-disk-space:500M # dsconf set-log-prop AUDIT rotation-interval:1d |
By default, the rotation interval for audit logs is one week.
Configure the error logs.
In this configuration, you specify additional data to be collected in the error log.
# dsconf set-log-prop ERROR max-age:3M # dsconf set-log-prop ERROR max-disk-space-size:20000M # dsconf set-log-prop ERROR max-file-count:30 # dsconf set-log-prop ERROR max-size:500M # dsconf set-log-prop ERROR min-free-disk-space:500M # dsconf set-log-prop ERROR verbose-enabled:on |
(Optional) Further configure the logs.
You can also configure the following settings for each log:
# dsconf set-log-prop LOG_TYPE rotation-min-file-size:undefined # dsconf set-log-prop LOG_TYPE rotation-time:undefined |
