Calling AUDIT

AUDIT requires special connect parameters:

USERNAME : the AUDIT user name

PASSWORD : the corresponding password

The special user name and the special password are made known to the authorized persons when ADABAS AUDIT is handed over.

Format:

Calling AUDIT (general format)

xaudit

The connect screen is displayed where the special user name and the special password must be entered.

After the connect, the user is in input mode where the individual filenames required by AUDIT can be entered in menu-driven dialog.

OUTFILE NAME designates the UNIX file into which ADABAS AUDIT writes its output,

LOGFILE NAME designates the operating system file that contains the backup version of the log to be audited, and

CONTROLFILE NAME designates the description file that contains information about the tables to be audited.

Calling AUDIT With Call Options

For the call of AUDIT, the AUDIT user name and password as well as the required filenames can be specified as call options. Example:

xaudit -u username,password -o outfile -l logfile -c ctrlfile

In this case, the AUDIT output file is implicitly generated without echo.

If one or more parameters are missing, AUDIT is executed in menu-driven dialog. The user is then prompted for the missing parameters.
