To Make the Active Audit File Available for Dumping

Syntax:

In order to access the active file's audit data, you need to make it available for dumping. You use the Audit Manager Administration command line utility to do this. After you perform this, it is no longer the active file, and you can access the data it contains.
Note: You can specify the audit file by either giving its name or the name of the audit event consolidator that uses it. If neither are specified, the command uses the current active file.
mfauditadm -p [-n instance-name] 
mfauditadm -p [-f audit-file-name] 

Parameters:

-p Make the active audit file available for dumping
-n instance-name Specifies the name of the audit event consolidator instance. This is the name that applications will use to communicate with this audit event consolidator instance.

This option cannot be used with the -f option. If neither this option nor the -f option is not specified, the machine name will be used.

-f audit-file-name Specifiies the name of the audit file to be made available for dumping. This option cannot be used with the -n option. An error will be reported if the named file is not an active audit file.

Example:

mfauditadm -p -f mfaudit.DOCTEST.aud_5
