To configure the filename for general authentication service tracing operations:
•
Specify the name of the file used for the trace output.
[edit system processes general-authentication-service traceoptions]
user@host# set file aap_logfile_1
Configuring the Number and Size of General Authentication Service Processes Log Files
You can optionally specify the number of compressed, archived trace log files to be from
2 through 1000. You can also configure the maximum file size to be from 10 KB through
1 gigabyte (GB); the default size is 128 kilobytes (KB).
The archived files are differentiated by a suffix in the format .number.gz. The newest
archived file is .0.gz and the oldest archived file is .(maximum number)-1.gz. When the
current trace log file reaches the maximum size, it is compressed and renamed, and any
existing archived files are renamed. This process repeats until the maximum number of
archived files is reached, at which point the oldest file is overwritten.
For example, you can set the maximum file size to 2 MB, and the maximum number of
files to 20. When the file that receives the output of the tracing operation, filename,
reaches 2 MB, filename is compressed and renamed filename.0.gz, and a new file called
filename is created. When the new filename reaches 2 MB, filename.0.gz is renamed
filename.1.gz and filename is compressed and renamed filename.0.gz. This process repeats
until there are 20 trace files. Then the oldest file, filename.19.gz, is simply overwritten
when the next oldest file, filename.18.gz is compressed and renamed to filename.19.gz.
To configure the number and size of trace files:
•
Specify the name, number, and size of the file used for the trace output, by including
the files and size options with the traceoptions statement.
[edit system processes general-authentication-service traceoptions]
user@host# set file aap_logfile_1 files 20 size 2097152
Configuring Access to the Log File
By default, log files can be accessed only by the user who configures the tracing operation.
You can allow all users to read the log file and you can explicitly set the default behavior
of the log file.
To specify that all users can read the log file:
•
Configure the log file to be world-readable.
[edit system processes general-authentication-service traceoptions]
user@host# set file aap_logfile_1 world-readable
To explicitly set the default behavior, in which the log file can only be read by the user
who configured tracing:
•
Configure the log file to be no-world-readable.
