RHEL-10-500125 - RHEL 10 must periodically flush audit records to disk to ensure that audit records are not lost.

Information

If option "freq" is not set to a value that requires audit records to be written to disk after a threshold number is reached, audit records may be lost.

Solution

Configure RHEL 10 to flush audit records to disk by adding or updating the following rule in "/etc/audit/rules.d/audit.rules":

freq = 100

Restart the audit daemon with the following command for changes to take effect:

$ sudo service auditd restart
