Configure Audit Settings

You configure audit settings in an audit settings file. An audit settings file determines the amount and type of information that CA IdentityMinder audits. You can configure an audit settings file to:

• Enable auditing for a CA IdentityMinder environment.
• Enable auditing for some or all of the CA IdentityMinder events generated by admin tasks.
• Record event information at specific states, such as when an event completes or is canceled.
• Log information about attributes involved in an event. For example, you can log attributes that change during a ModifyUserEvent event.
• Set the audit level for attribute logging.

Follow these steps:

1. Export the current audit settings to an audit settings XML file.
2. Configure audit settings in the XML file that you exported in the previous step by adding, modifying, or deleting elements in the file. Also to change the level of information that is recorded for each event.
3. Import the modified audit settings XML file.
