Audit trails and Sybase Failover

Audit trails are logged in the audit tables of the sybsecurity database. During fail over, sybsecurity for the failed server is mounted as sybsecurity_companion on the secondary companion. However, audit trails are always placed in the audit table of the current server. That is, after fail over, any new audit trails are placed in the audit table of the secondary companion. Any configuration or individual record changes related to auditing that are made on one companion are not automatically implemented on the other companion. For example, if you change an auditing configuration parameters on the primary companion, this change is not made on the secondary companion. If a user makes a change to a database on the primary companion that requires an audit record, this audit record is not made on the secondary companion.

On failback, no audit trails are transferred from the failed-over domain to the failed domain.
