Introduction › Primary Commands

Primary Commands

Primary commands are entered on the command line at the top of an CA Auditor display. Use these commands to control displays and the online documentation:

BASELINE

Use this command to examine the system to verify compliance with procedures and controls and then store the configuration in a VSAM-based history file.

END

(Standard ISPF command or function key) Exits the display you are in.

EVENTS ON|OFF

Use this parameter to turn the generation of CA Audit events on or off. Events are generated for certain CA Auditor functions and sent to CA Audit to notify security administrators of audit worthy events. Before you can issue CA Audit events, your site must enable them. Depending on how CA Auditor is configured, your security system might need to authorize you to issue events.

INTRO ON|OFF

Turns the introductory displays on or off.

LOCATE

Locates information on the displays.

OVERVIEW ON|OFF

Displays the functional overview panels for functions in CA Auditor.

QUIT

Ends the current display and cancels any line commands that have not executed yet.

RESET

Cancels line commands that you entered on a panel but have not entered yet.

SORT

Sorts information on the displays.

TRAP ON|OFF

Turns the generation of SNMP traps on or off. These traps are generated for certain CA Auditor functions. They are sent to a Unicenter workstation to notify security administrators of audit worthy events. Before you can issue SNMP traps, your site must enable them. Depending on how CA Auditor is configured, your security system might need to authorize you to issue traps.
