G.2 Logging Cache Module Startup

The Logging Cache Module (lcache) writes events to the Disconnected Mode Cache if the connection between the Platform Agent and the Secure Logging Server fails. It is installed with logevent on every server or workstation running applications that log events to Novell Nsure Audit.

On NetWare® and Windows, logevent automatically loads lcache. On Linux, the eDirectory instrumentation, nauditds, automatically loads lcache. In some circumstances, on Linux and Solaris systems, lcache must be manually loaded.

To load lcache on Linux systems, enter

/opt/novell/naudit/lcache

To load lcache on Solaris systems, enter

/opt/NOVLnaudit/lcache

IMPORTANT:Do not unload lcache. Even if the local logging applications are no longer running, lcache must stay loaded so it can upload cached data to the Secure Logging Server. To prevent the Logging Cache Module from being unloaded, you can set the LogCacheUnload setting to No in the logevent file. For more information, see Logevent.
