Storing audit logs

To store audit logs, you can either temporarily store audit logs to a system disk before storing the
logs in the SVP, or store audit logs directly in the SVP. To keep track of commands sent from hosts,
HP recommends that you temporarily store audit logs to a system disk before storing the logs in
the SVP.
Audit logs are transferred and stored in the SVP. However, audit logs might get lost if the SVP is
not working due to a failure, because the SVP cannot receive the transferred audit logs. You can
temporarily store logs to a system disk so that you can reduce the risk of losing audit logs. The
audit logs stored to the system disk will be eventually stored in the SVP.
Prerequisites
To set this audit log storing function, the authorization to modify the Audit Log Administrator
Role (Reference and Modification operation) is required.
A system disk must be created before you temporarily store an audit log to the SVP via the
system disk.
To configure how to store audit logs:
1.
Open the Remote Web Console main window.
2.
Click Settings > Security > Audit Log Setting. The Audit Log Setting window appears.
