audtrail(1m) audtrail(1m) NAME
audtrail - A dcecp object that converts the audit trail into a readable format SYNOPSIS
audtrail help [operation | -verbose] audtrail operations audtrail show audit_trail_file_name_list [-to filename] ARGUMENTS
A list of one or more names of audit trail files. The names are not the full pathnames, but only the residual file name. The name of the audtrail operation for which to display help information. DESCRIPTION
The audtrail object represents an audit trail file. This command currently supports only one operation, which converts the audit trail into a human readable format. OPERATIONS
audtrail help Returns help information about the audtrail object and its operations. The syntax is as follows: audtrail help [operation | -verbose] Options Displays information about the audtrail object. Used without an argument or option, the audtrail help command returns brief information about each audtrail operation. The optional opera- tion argument is the name of an operation about which you want detailed information. Alternatively, you can use the -verbose option for more detailed information about the audtrail object itself. Privileges Required No special privileges are needed to use the audtrail help command. Examples dcecp> audtrail help show Returns or files the contents of an audit trail file. help Prints a summary of command-line options. operations Returns a list of the valid operations for this command. dcecp> audtrail operations Returns a list of the operations supported by the audtrail object. The syntax is as follows: audtrail operations The list of available operations is in alphabetical order except for help and operations, which are listed last. Privileges Required No special privileges are needed to use the audtrail operations command. Examples dcecp> audtrail operations show help operations dcecp> audtrail show Returns the audit trail in a readable format. The syntax is as follows: audtrail show audit_trail_file_name_list [-to filename] Options Specifies the name of the file in which to store the audit trail output. The show operation returns the audit trail in a readable format. This command takes as an argument a list of names of audit trail files. If more than one name is given, the output of each audit trail is concatenated and a blank line inserted between audit trails. The -to option specifies a destination filename for the trail. If this option is not present, the trail is returned from the command. If the option is present, this operation returns an empty string. Because audit trail files can grow quite large, using the -to switch is strongly recommended to avoid reading the entire trail into memory. Note that when dcecp processes output, it sends the entire set of returned information to an internal buffer before displaying it. There- fore, when the output is directed to the screen, it can take a long time to appear. Privileges Required You must have r (read) permission on the audit trail file on the local file system.
