Adventures in CC, part duex - audit externalization
CC 13.2 on Oracle Linux 7
In the Entreprise Manager Cloud Control Security Guide we read the following:
2.6.4 Configuring the Audit Data Export Service
Audit data needs to be protected and maintained for several years. The volume of audit data may become very large and impact the performance of the system. To limit the amount of data stored in the repository, the audit data must be externalized or archived at regular intervals. The archived audit data is stored in an XML file complying with the ODL format. To externalize the audit data, the EM_AUDIT_EXTERNALIZATION
API is used. Records of the format <file-prefix>.NNNNN.xml, where NNNN is a number, are generated. The numbers start with 00001 and continue to 99999.
