Auditing in Trusted Extensions requires the same planning as in the Oracle Solaris OS. For details about planning, see Chapter 29, Planning for Oracle Solaris Auditing, in System Administration Guide: Security Services.
In Trusted Extensions, auditing is the responsibility of two roles. The System Administrator role sets up the disks and the network of audit storage. The Security Administrator role decides what is to be audited, and specifies the information in the audit configuration files. As in the Oracle Solaris OS, you create the roles in software. The rights profiles for these two roles are provided. The initial setup team created the Security Administrator role during initial configuration. For details, see Create the Security Administrator Role in Trusted Extensions.
Note - A system only records the security-relevant events that the audit configuration files configure the system to record (that is, by preselection). Therefore, any subsequent audit review can only consider the events that have been recorded. As a result of misconfiguration, attempts to breach the security of the system can go undetected, or the administrator is unable to detect the user who is responsible for an attempted breach of security. Administrators must regularly analyze audit trails to check for breaches of security.
The procedures to configure and manage auditing in Trusted Extensions differ slightly from Oracle Solaris procedures. In Trusted Extensions, audit configuration is performed in the global zone by one of two administrative roles. Then, the system administrator copies specific customized audit files from the global zone to every labeled zone. By following this procedure, user actions are audited identically in the global zone and in labeled zones

The following tasks are security-relevant, and are therefore the responsibility of the security administrator. Follow the Oracle Solaris instructions.
