    The Global definition field names are described in the following table:

    Field Name Description Default
    Audit Admin Commands The default if a selection of Administration Subscriptions definitions to be used to audit Admin Commands. NO
    Auditing Pool Warning Message Increment

    The increment, in percent of auditing pool usage, at which auditing pool warning messages should be written.

    Valid values are 1 – 99.

    10
    Auditing Pool Warning Message Interval

    The interval, in seconds, during which auditing pool usage warning messages are suppressed on the console.

    Valid values are 1 – 2,147,483,647.

    60
    Auditing Pool Warning Message Limit

    The number of auditing pool usage messages that may be written before these messages are suppressed. Valid values are 1 – 2,147,483,647.

    5
    Auditing Pool Warning Percent

    The interval, in seconds, during which auditing pool usage warning messages are suppressed on the console.

    The percent of auditing pool usage, at which auditing pool warning messages should be written.

    Valid values are 0 - 99.

    The default value of 0 means warning messages will not be written.

    0
    Connection Count

    The number of connection attempts to the Audit Server an Adabas nucleus should attempt when the first attempt to connect fails.

    Valid values are 0 – 2,147,483,647.

    A value of 0 means no subsequent connection attempts will be made after the first connection attempt fails.

    0
    Connection Interval

    The interval, in seconds, between connection attempts when an attempt to connect to an Audit Server by an Adabas nucleus fails.

    Valid values for this parameter are 0 – 2,147,483,647.

    A value of 0 means no subsequent connection attempts will be made after a connection attempt fails.

    0
    Destination Full Delay

    The number of seconds between retry attempts when resending auditing data to a defined destination.

    60
    EntireX Broker Stub Name The default EntireX Broker stub name to be used by the Auditing Server if no other name is specified. BROKER
    Max Output Size

    The maximum output message size for the Adabas Auditing. The minimum value you can specify for this field is 32768.

    This parameter may be specified in bytes or it may be specified with the suffix K to indicate kilobytes. The maximum value is 2,147,483,647 bytes. The practical maximum is limited by the region size of the Adabas Audit Server. One output buffer is acquired for each output task.

    100000
    Log Input

    Whether or not the Adabas Audit Server should use its SLOG system file as a temporary storage location for incoming audit data before they are queued for processing. Once audit data has been written to the SLOG system file, the Adabas Audit Server processes them using a throttling mechanism so that only a limited amount of the Audit pool (LAP) space is used at a time. Valid values are:

    • ALL (indicating that input audit data will always be written to the SLOG system file)

    • NO (the default, indicating that input audit data will not be written to the SLOG system file), or

    • an integer in the range from 1 to 99. The integer setting specifies a threshold percentage of the LAP (Audit pool space) that can be used before triggering the writing of input audit data to the SLOG system file

    NO
    Open at Start

    Use this field to indicate whether or not destinations with Open at Start set to G in their definitions should be opened at Audit Server startup.

    This parameter specifies the global policy for determining whether destinations with Open at Start set to G are opened at startup. Valid values are Y or N, with Y as the default.

    When this parameter is set to Y, any definitions with Open at Start set to G in destination queue are opened at Auditing Server startup. When this parameter is set to N, any definitions with Open at Start set to G in the destination queue are not opened at Auditing Server startup.

    YES
    Open Retry Count The default number of times an attempt to open a destination will be retried at the interval specified by the Open Retry Interval parameter. Valid values range from 0 to 2,147,483,647. A zero value indicates no retry processing should occur for any affected destinations. 10
    Open Retry Interval The default number of seconds between retry attempts that will be performed for any destination on input queue for which no specific retry interval has been specified. Valid values range from 0 to 2,147,483,647. A zero value indicates that no retry processing should occur for any affected destinations.  
    Output Subtasks The number of subtasks in the Auditing Server. 3
    Subtask Activation Wait Time The number of seconds that can be used to override the default time to wait for a subtask to finish initialization and activate. Valid values are from 1 to 3600 seconds. 10
