Audit Log Management

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords allows you to define and schedule an audit log management task to purge audit logs from the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance and archive older audit logs to a designated archive server. Archiving audit logs allows you to keep critical and relevant data online and current while eliminating or archiving audit logs that are no longer required.

CAUTION: The initial and subsequent archiving and purging of audit logs can take hours. The cluster is locked during the process. Carefully schedule and monitor this process.

To define and schedule when to perform an audit log archival task:

  1. Navigate to Administrative Tools | Settings | Backup and Retention | Audit Log Management.

  2. Select Run Every to run the job along per the run details you enter. (If you deselect Run Every, the schedule details are lost.

      • Minutes: The job runs per the frequency of minutes you specify. For example, Every 30 Minutes runs the job every half hour over a 24-hour period. It is recommended you do not use the frequency of minutes except in unusual situations, such as testing.

      • Hours: The job runs per the minute setting you specify. For example, if it is 9 a.m. and you want to run the job every two hours at 15 minutes past the hour starting at 9:15 a.m., select Runs Every 2 Hours @ 15 minutes after the hour.

      • Days: The job runs on the frequency of days and the time you enter.

        For example, Every 2 Days Starting @ 11:59:00 PM runs the job every other evening just before midnight.
