Effect of Single Policy Server Process on Audit Logging to Text Files (19630)

Prior to SiteMinder 6.0, when the audit logging was configured to write to text files, each Policy Server process added to the configured base file name. The addition included a distinguishing string ( "_Acct", "_Adm", "_Auth" or "_Az" ) and a current date-time string. The r6.0 SP6 single-process Policy Server does not add distinguishing characters to the configured file name (other than appending number when rolling over the log files).

Regarding the effect of new policy stores on audit logging, see Audit Logs (24116).
