When AIX audit start, How to set the /audit/stream.out file size ?

Dear All


When I start the AIX(6100-06)audit subsystem.

the log will save in /audit/stream.out (or /audit/trail), but in default when /audit/stream.out to grow up to 150MB.

It will replace the original /audit/stream.out (or /audit/trail).

Then the /audit/stream.out become empty and only contain new data.

So, Can I manual setting the stream.out (or /audit/trail) file size?
