exitstatus

Description

Type string READONLY

exitstatus contains the exit status of the runcommand. This variable is not available for use in the policy file. It is logged in the "Finish" event by pmlocald when the session ends.

Example
#Display all sh commands that failed to complete successfully
pmlog -c 'runcommand == "sh" && exitstatus != "Command finished with exit status 0"'

exitdate

exittime

exittime

Description
Type string READONLY

exittime is the time the requested command finished running (HH:MM:SS)

Example
#display all commands that finished after 6pm 
pmlog -c 'exittime > "18:00:00"'

PM settings variables

This section describes the settings and parameters used by Privilege Manager for Unix. These settings are stored on each host in the /etc/opt/quest/qpm4u/pm.settings file which contains a list of settings, one per line, in the form: settingName value1 [value2 [... valuen]]. To view a sample pm,.settings file, see Configuration prerequisites.

You can modify these policy server configuration settings using the configuration script initialized by the pmsrvconfig command or you can modify the pm.settings file manually. For details about running the configuration script, see Configuring the primary policy server for Privilege Manager for Unix.

If you manually change the pm.settings file, restart the pmserviced and/or pmloadcheck daemons in order for the changes to take effect.

The following table describes each of the pm.settings variables:

Defaults may differ depending on the platform you are configuring and whether you are configuring a policy server or PM Agent. Many of these settings will not have a default value.

The variables are not case sensitive.

Table 32: Variables: pm.settings
Variable Data type Description

auditsrvCAbundle

string

The path to a certificate authority bundle file, in PEM format, to use instead of the system's default certificate authority database when doing TLS authentication.

Example:

/etc/ssl/sudo/ca.bundle.pem

auditsrvCert

string

The path to the policy server's certificate file, in PEM format. Used for TLS only.

Example:

/etc/ssl/sudo/qpm_qpmdevel1.cert.pem

auditsrvEnabled

boolean

(YES/NO)

Specifies if audit server logging is on or off.

The default is NO.

For more information, see Audit server logging on

auditsrvEnforced

boolean

(YES/NO)

If YES, the audit server connection failures will be fatal.

If NO, the audit log will be collected encrypted on the file system.and sent again to the server if it comes back.

auditsrvHosts

list of host ports of the audit sever

The host:port of the audit server. Host can be an ipv4/ipv6/hostname. Multiple hosts need to be separated by comma.

Example:

qpmdevel1.qpmdomain:30344,127.0.0.1:30344

auditsrvKeepalive

boolean

(YES/NO)

Select whether keepalive is enabled on the connection.

auditsrvLocaliologs

boolean

(YES/NO)

If YES, old pmlog io logs are also written.

if NO, io logs are only stored by the sudo log server.

auditsrvLogdir

string

If auditsrvEnforced is NO, this is the log directory where audit logs get saved temporarily until they can be sent successfully.

Example:

/var/opt/quest/qpm4u/auditserver

auditsrvPkey

string

The path to the private key of the policy server, in PEM format. Used for TLS only.

Example:

/etc/ssl/sudo/qpm_qpmdevel1.key.pem

auditsrvPSpaceMB

boolean

(YES/NO)

The minimum amount of disk space needed before starting to write an audit trail to the temporary storage. This is to prevent disk space filled up. If the disk space is lower, the policy server will reject the connections, just like if it was in "enforced" mode.

auditsrvTimeout

integer

The connection timeout in seconds. 3 seconds is recommended.

auditsrvTLS

boolean

(YES/NO)

If YES, the communication with all the servers will use TLS. Specifying a key is required in this case.

auditsrvTLSCheckpeer

boolean

(YES/NO)

If YES, client certificates will be validated by the server; clients without a valid certificate will be unable to connect.

If NO, no validation of client certificates will be performed.

If true and client certificates are created using a private certificate authority, the tls_cacert setting must be set to a CA bundle that contains the CA certificate used to generate the client certificate.

The default value is NO.

auditsrvTLSVerify

boolean

(YES/NO)

If YES, the server certificate will be verified at startup and clients will authenticate the server by verifying its certificate and identity.

If NO, no verification is performed of the server certificate by the server or the client. When using self-signed certificates without a certificate uthority, this setting should be set to NO.

The default value is YES.

certificates

boolean (YES/NO)

Specifies whether certificates are enabled. To enable configurable certification, add the following statement to the /etc/opt/quest/qpm4u/pm.settings file on each host: certificates yes.

Default: NO

For more information, see Enable configurable certification..

For more information, see Central logging with Privilege Manager for Unix..

string

Identifies the level of host name verification applied by the policy server host to the submit host name. The verification ensures that the incoming IP address resolves (on the primary policy server) to the same host name as presented by the submit host.

Valid values are:

  • none: No verification performed.

  • yes: If a host name is presented for verification by the runclient it will be verified.

  • All: The policy server will only accept a request from a client if the host name is verified.
