Welcome to a tutorial on how to create or
modify audit preservation policies in the
SafeArchive Audit System (SAAS). You can access the area to create a new policy
from here. Or you can go access your audit schema
instance through the Audit Schema Manager
under Audit Schema Instance List. So from this page you can view or edit your
current schema instance or download it in XML. You can also access your previous schema
instances at the bottom of the page. Or you can create a new audit schema instance
by clicking this button.
When creating a new instance the system
guides you through the process with questions. First you have to give the name of the PLN you
want audited and provide an email address for
the PLN administrator. In this box you select discovered hosts by
checking these boxes, and you set the space
committed in these boxes. You can also add more hosts or edit host
attributes by clicking on Edit the Host List, and then once the new host is added it will
appear as a discovered host that you can
include in the instance. Then you will go on and set policies for the
Archival Units (AUs). So here you can also
check the boxes to include AUs in the audit. These 4 columns are pre-populated with default
policy values that can be changed by an
administrator under the Edit Audit Settings tab. Geographic Redundancy is pre-filled with a
default value of 2. You can also easily modify
policy values for an AU by typing in a new value. Question 8 is where you set your audit cycle,
and this question has a default of Weekly:
Sunday. You can also set a recipient for these reports,
and you can set more than one recipient email
by separating addresses with a comma. Once you finish creating or editing your schema
instance you hit Save this Audit Schema
Instance. So this tutorial showed how you can easily use
the SafeArchive system to quickly create and
edit your systems audit policies. Thanks for watching!
