Enable messages trapping for Account Creation/Modify/Deletion to be sent via Rsyslog so we can alert on these events

Enable messages trapping for Account Creation/Modify/Deletion to be sent via Rsyslog so we can alert on these events 

It is my understanding after speaking with IBM that these messages are captured but the system is only designed to send Login / Logout messages

taken from a previous case I raised:

"There are three types of notifications that are generated by the system:

  • Events (OPxxxx messages in a CBR3750I message in the host)
  • Host Message (Gxxxx, ALxxxx, EXXXX, Rxxxx in a CBR3750I message in the host) 
  • Call Home MDE in SIM (in a IEA480E message in the host)

but seems TS7700 we send only OPxxx or G00xx or MDE to the syslog server like when user login or logout, but no create or modify get send "

 

Ideally I'd like all messages passed so we have clear clarity on what is happening (Same for the TSSC) - Like the DS8000 range

This way we can create meaningful alerting which is a requirement to our governance and auditing.
