Creating a file and directory auditing configuration on SVMs

Creating a file and directory auditing configuration on your storage virtual machine (SVM) includes understanding the available configuration options, planning the configuration, and then configuring and enabling the configuration. You can then display information about the auditing configuration to confirm that the resultant configuration is the desired configuration.

  1. Creating the auditing configuration
    Before you can begin auditing file and directory events, you must create an auditing configuration on the storage virtual machine (SVM).
  2. Enabling auditing on the SVM
    After you finish setting up the auditing configuration, you must enable auditing on the storage virtual machine (SVM).
  3. Verifying the auditing configuration
    After completing the auditing configuration, you should verify that auditing is configured properly and is enabled.
