Automate enabling/disabling of Audit Sink Policy

[Shijil Chandran]

Can you please guide me , how to schedule enabling/disabling of "Audit Sink policy" using Manage Scheduled Tasks.

Expectation is to disable the "Audit Sink policy" at specific time during the day (to store the logs in gateway database)  and re-enable back at specific time to (store the logs to external database). This need to happen without manual intervention.  Thanks!

Hi,

I've not looked into other ways, but how about calling Restman to reconfigure your audit config on demand?

It could be as easy as calling restman to switch the audit config CWPs to only log SEVERE messages during certain times etc.

Hi Vince Baker,

Thanks for your reply.​

Audit Sink policy is not a service, Its a policy. Is it possible to call policy with restman?

Is there any other solution you may please suggest ?

Hi,

What I was actually initially suggesting was to set the audit.detailThreshold CWP dynamically using Restman.

For example:

curl -k -XPOST -u "admin:7layer -H 'Content-Type: application/xml' -d '<l7:ClusterProperty xmlns:l7="http://ns.l7tech.com/2010/04/gateway-management"> <l7:Name>raudit.detailThreshold</l7:Name> <l7:Value>WARNING</l7:Value> </l7:ClusterProperty>' 'https://localhost:8443/restman/1.0/clusterProperties'
