Audit Configuration

Auditing is only available in the Enterprise Edition.

Output

--audit.output output

Specifies the target of the audit log. Possible values are

file://filename where filename can be relative or absolute.

syslog://facility or syslog://facility/application-name to log into a syslog server.

The option can be specified multiple times in order to configure the output for multiple targets.

Hostname

--audit.hostname name

The name of the server used in audit log messages. By default the system hostname is used.

Verbosity

--log.level topic=level

By default, the server will log all audit events. Some low-priority events, such as statistics operations, are logged with the debug log level. To keep such events from cluttering the log, set the appropriate topic to info. All other messages will be logged at the info level. Audit topics include audit-authentication, audit-authorization, audit-collection, audit-database, audit-document, audit-service, and audit-view.
