View security logs

The security logs can be viewed on the TKE, but only when you are logged in with the AUDITOR user name. The security log has a maximum size of 30 MB.

When the security log reaches 75% full, a hardware message alerts the user on the TKE console. The View Security Logs task determines whether the message displays. By default, the message displays.

When the security log reaches 100% capacity, the oldest third of the audit records are deleted.

In order to avoid deleting records you can archive the security logs (see Archive security logs).

In order to view the security logs, log in as the AUDITOR user, select Service Management and select View Security Logs.

This log displays 1000 records per page. The 1000 record pages can be navigated by clicking on Show Earlier Events and Show Later Events.

If the audit record contains an asterisk (*) next to the line saying 'TKE Audit Record', this means that there are further details available to view. You can view the details by selecting the radio button corresponding to the desired audit record and clicking Details.
