Description
To verify operating systems have a sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, operating systems need to be able to allocate audit record storage capacity.
The task of allocating audit record storage capacity is usually performed during initial installation of the operating system.
ℹ️ Check
Verify the logging capacity is set to the maximum value of "4", with the following command:
cli% showsys -param
If the resulting list of configured parameters and values, does not contain "EventLogSize : 4M", this is a finding.
✔️ Fix
Configure the audit logging capacity for the maximum storage value by entering the command:
cli% setsys EventLogSize 4M
