auditstat

auditstat(1M)						  System Administration Commands					     auditstat(1M)

NAME

       auditstat - display kernel audit statistics

SYNOPSIS

       auditstat [-c count] [-h numlines] [-i interval] [-n] [-v]

DESCRIPTION

       auditstat displays kernel audit statistics. The fields displayed are as follows:

       aud	The total number of audit records processed by the audit(2) system call.

       ctl	This field is obsolete.

       drop	The  total  number  of	audit  records that have been dropped. Records are dropped according to the kernel audit policy. See audi-
		ton(2), AUDIT_CNT policy for details.

       enq	The total number of audit records put on the kernel audit queue.

       gen	The total number of audit records that have been constructed (not the number written).

       kern	The total number of audit records produced by user processes (as a result of system calls).

       mem	The total number of Kbytes of memory currently in use by the kernel audit module.

       nona	The total number of non-attributable audit records that have been constructed. These are audit records that are  not  attributable
		to any particular user.

       rblk	The total number of times that auditsvc(2) has blocked waiting to process audit data.

       tot	The total number of Kbytes of audit data written to the audit trail.

       wblk	The total number of times that user processes blocked on the audit queue at the high water mark.

       wrtn	The  total  number of audit records written. The difference between enq and wrtn is the number of outstanding audit records on the
		audit queue that have not been written.

OPTIONS

       -c count        Display the statistics a total of count times. If count is equal to zero, statistics are displayed  indefinitely.   A  time
		       interval must be specified.

       -h numlines     Display	a  header  for every  numlines of statistics printed. The default is to display the header every 20 lines. If num-
		       lines is equal to zero, the header is never displayed.

       -i interval     Display the statistics every interval where interval is the number of seconds to sleep between each collection.

       -n	       Display the number of kernel audit events currently configured.

       -v	       Display the version number of the kernel audit module software.

EXIT STATUS

       auditstat returns 0 upon success and 1 upon failure.
