Data ONTAP 5.3 enables you to monitor reads and writes of a specified file on the
filer by a specified user. The procedure for doing so is the same as for Windows NT.
NOTE: The file on the filer must be in a mixed or ntfs volume or qtree. You cannot
audit events on a file in a UNIX volume or qtree.
You can specify the logging of successes, failures, or both for each type of event as
described in “Setting a System ACL on a File.” You can view the events on the filer
using the Windows Event Viewer, as described in “Viewing Events in a Security Log.”

You use event auditing to troubleshoot access problems, to check for suspicious activ-
ity on a system, or to investigate a security breach.
‡
If someone who should have access to a file cannot get access, examining the
event can provide a clue to resolving the problem.
‡
If a file has been changed in a way that indicates a security breach, event auditing
might provide clues about the nature of the breach if subsequent changes occur.

The active event log is the file to which system writes access logging information. The
default active event log is /etc/log/adtlog.evt . You can specify another active event log
with the
cifs.access_logging.filename
option. You can change active event
logs at any time. The other logs remain available for reading until you delete them.

Anyone can read an event log. You cannot write to an event log or clear one, but you
can delete one.
