12 Audit Log

The Audit Log feature provides a surveillance system log for companies that are required to prove they are adhering to surveillance processes. This chapter describes how to enable the Audit Log feature, set retention periods, monitor status, and grant user access to the repository. For information on performing Audit Log repository queries, see the Audit Log section in the HP Reference Information Storage System User Guide.

The chapter includes the following topics:

•Enabling the Audit Log feature, page 97

•Granting user access to Audit Log repository, page 97

•Monitoring status, page 98

•Setting Audit Log repository retention periods, page 98

Enabling the Audit Log feature

The Audit Log feature is enabled per domain. To enable the Audit Log feature for a domain, add the following attributes in the /install/configs/primary/Domain.jcml file for each domain in which the Audit Log feature needs to be enabled:

•AuditLogEnabled=true

•domainLog_IP=<VIP for this domain>

If the RISS system is part of a replicated site, the value of the domainLog_IP attribute needs to be the VIP of the primary site.

To turn on windoc support:

•DocClass=email,windoc

2.Go to the Account Manager view (User Management > Account Manager).

3.Click the User radio button at the top of the view.

You can search for the user with the letter buttons, or by using the search function.
