trcfilter.init

Valid on UNIX

The CA ControlMinder daemon also uses the trcfilter.init initialization file.

This optional file contains entries that specify filter masks for filtering out CA ControlMinder trace messages. Each line of the file contains a regular expression. When a message is sent to the trace file, seosd checks whether the message matches one of the entries in the trcfilter.init file. It writes the trace message to the file only if it does not match any of the expressions specified in the trcfilter.init file.

For example, the following trcfilter.init file causes all messages that begin with “INFO” or “WATCHDOG” to be discarded. They are not written to the trace file.

WATCHDOG*
INFO*

Note: This file does not filter audit records generated by user traces. To filter these audit records, edit the audit.cfg file.
