NAME

       Nsrlogd - daemon providing the NetWorker auditlog service.

SYNOPSIS

       nsrlogd

DESCRIPTION

 	The nsrlogd daemon is a logging service that logs the NetWorker Secu-
	rity Audit Messages. These audit messages are logged into the security
	audit file and are viewable only by a user who has a Security Adminis-
	trator role.
	
	The logging service is configured by the NSR auditlog RAP resource. The
	NSR auditlog resource is created by default and cannot be deleted.
	Only users with the Security Administrator role can change the
	resource. The service can be disabled by setting the logging server
	hostname to an empty value.
	
	The nsrlogd service starts by default and can be configured to run on
	any NetWorker client.
	
	There can be only one logging service running per NetWorker data zone.
	However, one client may be part of multiple NetWorker data zones, and
	such a client may be the log server for each of those data zones. In
	this configuration, only one nsrlogd daemon will run on the logging
	server and it will provide logging service for all configured clients
	in the data zones. The nsrlogd service is always spawned by nsrexecd
	daemon, depending on the client configured in NSR auditlog RAP resource
	in NetWorker server.

ATTRIBUTES

 	The nsrlogd daemon is configured using NSR auditlog RAP resource. The
	information in parentheses describes how the attribute values are
	accessed. Read-only indicates that the value cannot be changed by an
	administrator. Read/write means the value can be set and read. Choice
	list means that any number of values can be chosen from the given list.
	Static attributes change values rarely.
	
	name (read-only, static)
		This attribute specifies the name of security audit file. The
		name of the security audit file cannot be modified and by
		default it has the following format:
			 <Net-Worker_server_name>_sec_audit.raw
	
	administrator (read/write, static)
		This attribute specifies the list of user/administrator allowed
		to administer this NSR auditlog resource.
	
	auditlog hostname (read/write, static)
		This attribute specifies the logging server host name. The
		auditlog host must be a client of NetWorker server. If empty
		value is entered for the auditlog hostname, then auditlog ser-
		vice is disabled.
	
	auditlog filepath (read/write, static)
		The path where the security audit raw file is to be placed. If
		the path does not exist, it will be created. The rendered secu-
		rity audit log file, if enabled, is also placed in the same
		directory.
	
	auditlog severity (choice, read/write, static)
		This attribute specifies the filter for severity of the messages
		that are logged. The choices are: debug, information, notice,
		warning, intervation, error, sever, critical, alert, and emer-
		gency. By default the severity is set to error.
	
		Example:
		If the auditlog severity is set to critical, then only messages
		that has severity critical and above are logged into security
		auditlog file.
	
	auditlog rendered service (choice, read/write, static)
		Service used for logging the rendered messages. Messages are
		rendered to the locale specified by the option auditlog rendered
		locale. By default, messages are rendered in English. The
		choices are:
	
		none: Messages are not rendered.
		
		local: Messages are rendered to a log file. The rendered log
		file takes the form <NetWorker_server_name>_sec_audit.log.
		
		syslog: Messages are rendered and sent to the syslog service.
		This option is only valid on logging servers running a Unix-
		based operating system.
		
		eventlog: Messages are rendered and sent to the Windows Event
		Log service. This option is only valid on logging servers run-
		ning a Microsoft Windows operationg system.

	auditlog rendered locale (read/write, static)
		Locale is used for rendering messages. The value for this option
		is applicable only when the auditlog rendered service is set to
		local/syslog/eventlog. This value must match a NetWorker-sup-
		ported locale installed on the logging server. If the locale is
		not supported then the messages are rendered in English.
		
	auditlog maximum file size MB (read/write, static)
		The maximum size of the log file is specified in MB. When the
		file size reaches -5% to +5% of the maximum file size specified,
		the log file is rolled over. Default value is set to 2.
	
	auditlog maximum file version (read/write, static)
		The number of versions of the log files to keep during rollover
		before they are deleted. A value of zero specifies all versions
		are retained. Default value is set to 0.
	
	auditlog server parallelism (read/write)
		This attribute is used to optimize performance on NetWorker
		server. The default value is set to 10. This value specified is
		used to calculate the number of threads used by the NetWorker
		server to mirror auditlog resource to all the clients. The num-
		ber of threads is calculated by the ratio of number of clients
		in a datazone to this value.
		
		Example:
		If the total number of clients in the datazone is 100, and the
		auditlog server parallelism is set to 5. Then the number
		threads used by the NetWorker server to mirror auditlog resource
		to all the clients is 100 / 5 = 20.
