Configuring Audit Log Dumping

Scenarios

The audit logs of FusionInsight Manager are stored in the database by default. If the audit logs are retained for a long time, the disk space of the data directory may be insufficient. To store audit logs to another archive server, administrators can set the required dump parameters to automatically dump these logs. This facilitates the management of audit logs.

If you do not configure the audit log dumping, the system automatically saves the audit logs to a file when the number of audit logs reaches 100,000 pieces. The save path is ${BIGDATA_DATA_HOME} /dbdata_om/dumpData/iam/operatelog on the active management node. The file name format is OperateLog_store_YY_MM_DD_HH_MM_SS.csv. The maximum number of historical audit log files is 50.

Procedure

1. Log in to FusionInsight Manager.
2. Choose Audit > Configurations.
3. Click the switch on the right of Dump Audit Log.

   By default, Dump Audit Log is disabled. If this parameter is set to , the function is enabled.

4. Set the dump parameters based on information provided in Table 1.

   Parameter	Description	Value
   SFTP IP Mode	IP address mode. The value can be IPv4 or IPv6.	IPv4
   SFTP IP	Specifies the SFTP server for storing dumped audit logs. This parameter is mandatory. You are advised to use the SFTP service based on SSH v2. Otherwise, security risks exist.	192.168.10.51 (example value)
   SFTP Port	Specifies the port of the SFTP server for storing dumped audit logs. This parameter is mandatory.	22 (example value)
   Save Path	Specifies the path for storing audit logs on the SFTP server. This parameter is mandatory.	/opt/omm/oms/auditLog (example value)
   SFTP Username	Specifies the username for logging in to the SFTP server. This parameter is mandatory.	root (example value)
   SFTP Password	Specifies the password for logging in to the SFTP server. This parameter is mandatory.	Password for logging in to the SFTP server
   SFTP Public key	Specifies the public key of the SFTP server. This parameter is optional. You are advised to set the public key of the SFTP server. Otherwise, security risks may exist.	-
   Dumping Mode	Specifies the dump mode. This parameter is mandatory. By Quantity: If the number of pieces of logs reaches the value of this parameter (100000 by default), the logs are dumped. By Time: specifies the date when logs are dumped. The dumping frequency is once a year.	By Quantity By Time
   Dumping Date	This parameter is mandatory. It is available when the dump mode is set to By Time. After you select a dump date, the system starts dumping on this date. The logs to be dumped include all the audit logs generated before January 1 00:00 of the current year.	November 06 (example)
