Setting the User Logging Levels
The valid logging levels are: |
|
Logging Level A | Log all transactions |
Logging Level R | Log only rejected requests |
Logging Level N | No logging |
As you set up your user logging levels, please keep in mind the following:
If you set the logging level on the Server Function (WRKSRV) to NO LOGGING or REJECTIONS, the Server Function (WRKSRV) setting will override the individual user logging level.
If you set the logging level on the Server Function to ALL, the individual user logging level will override the Server Function logging level.
To make sure you are logging transactions correctly, we recommend that when you initially set up SafeNet/400 you set the Server Functions to log ALL and set the User to Server logging levels to either ALL or REJECTIONS.
Then, after you have had some experience with checking the logs and interpreting the results, you may want to make changes for specific user and server combinations.
An example of this might include certain "trusted" user profiles. If you trust the user in question and are concerned about the size and amount of logging activity, you might choose to only record rejected transactions for that user.
Another example might be a known client server application that is clearly defined and does not need to be monitored. For these applications you might choose to stop logging altogether. We have found several fax applications that fall into this category. They generate a large number of entries that are really not needed for your purposes in controlling access security.
