NAME
zos−remote.conf − the audisp-racf plugin configuration file
DESCRIPTION
zos−remote.conf controls the configuration for the audispd−zos−remote(8) Audit dispatcher plugin. The default location for this file is /etc/audit/zos−remote.conf, however, a different file can be specified as the first argument to the audispd−zos−remote plugin. See audispd−zos−remote(8) and auditd(8). The options available are as follows:
| server | This is the IBM z/OS ITDS server hostname or IP address | ||
| port | The port number where ITDS is running on the z/OS server. Default is 389 (ldap port) | ||
| user | The z/OS RACF user ID which the audispd−zos−remote plugin will use to perform Remote Audit requests. This user needs READ access to FACILITY Class resource IRR.LDAP.REMOTE.AUDIT (See audispd−zos−remote(8)). |
password
The password associated the the z/OS user ID configured above.
timeout
The number in seconds that audispd−zos−remote plugin will wait before giving up in connection attempts and event submissions. The default value is 15
q_depth
The audispd−zos−remote plugin will queue inputted events to the maximum of q_depth events while trying to submit those remotely. This can handle burst of events or in case of a slow network connection. However, the audispd−zos−remote plugin will drop events in case the queue is full. The default queue depth is 64 - Increase this value in case you are experiencing event drop due to full queue (audispd−zos−remote will log this to syslog).
