SLEM-05-653040 - SLEM 5 must offload audit records onto a different system or media from the system being audited.

Information

Information stored in one location is vulnerable to accidental or incidental deletion or alteration.

Offloading is a common process in information systems with limited audit storage capacity.

Solution

Configure SLEM 5 to take the appropriate action if it cannot offload audit records to a different system or storage media from the system being audited due to a network failure.

Add or modify the following line in the "/etc/audisp/audisp-remote.conf" file:

network_failure_action = syslog
