Audit resource monitoring

Audit resource monitoring

From the manual : what happens if you disable resource monitoring.

The audit server begins to suspend processes that are generating too many audits, as Section 9.6.4 describes, and if it runs out of memory, the server takes the action described in Section 9.6.5: it ignores messages, purges old messages, or, possibly, crashes the system.

Now, I would like to disable resource monitoring and never have audit_server suspending processes.
And when something goes wrong when writing to disk (not only when out of memory), I want audit_server to purge the old messages as needed.

Is that possible ?

Re: Audit resource monitoring

See HELP SET AUDIT

or event
SET AUDIT/RESOURCE=DISABLE

Re: Audit resource monitoring

Ian,

I don't have memory resource problems, I have disk problems. So, it would not execute the final action.
