Event Generation Restriction

Excessive use of CA Audit events can clutter CA Audit client applications. Use the CA Auditor central parameter file parameters to restrict their use. For information on the central parameter file, see the Installation Guide.

CA Audit events can be set up so that:

• Anyone can issue events
• No one can issue events
• Only users authorized by the security system issue events

CA Audit events can be set up so that events to indicate CA Auditor use are generated:

• Never
• For batch use only
• For TSO use only
• For all use

CA Auditor functions that can generate CA Audit events are:

• APF-authorized TSO commands (option 2.2.3)
• File compare (option 6.4)
• File freezer (Option 6.6)
• MLPA and FLPA modules (Option 3.5)
• z/OS exits (Option 3.3)
• Program compare (Option 5.3)
• Program Properties Table (Option 3.6)
• Program freezer (Option 5.5)
• Supervisor calls (Option 3.7)
