auditinit

The auditinit executable file is located here:

Syntax

auditinit [-v ] [-h ] 
[-a] 
[-c charset] 
[-e] 
[-D user_data_directory ]
[-l language]
[-log log_file]
[-r resource_file]
[-s release_directory]

-v – prints the version string and exits.
-h – prints the help information and syntax usage and exits.
-a – validates an audit resource file.
-c – sets the character set.
-e – writes the environment to the log file and exits.
-D – when specified, auditinit will read or write user data files (for example: interfaces, RUN_server, and so on) from or to this directory. Use this option when you specify at the time that you install SAP ASE, that another user could configure the server. If you do not use -D, the SAP ASE server uses $SYBASE (%SYBASE% on Windows) as the default.
-l – specifies the language you want to use for the SAP ASE server.
-log – indicates a user-defined log file where the output is stored.
-r – specifies the name and location of the resources file for the SAP ASE server.
-s – specifies the name and location of the SAP ASE directory.

Example 1 – Starts the interactive auditinit utility. Use the utility to install an audit system, or modify devices in the current audit system:auditinit
```
AUDITINIT
1. Release directory:  /usr/u/sybase 
2. Configure a Server product
```
Example 2 – Writes the environment to the auditinit log file.auditinit -e
```
The log file for this session is 'C:\Sybase\ASE-16_0\init\logs\log1120.007'.
```
Example 3 – Validates the specified audit resource file:auditinit -a -r auditResource.rs

To install an audit system, enter auditinit without any parameters to start the interactive utility.

Using the parameters, you can retrieve information about the current audit system.

The system security officer manages the audit system.
