| Each action that modifies
the IMAGE/SQL database is recorded (logged) to the logfile.
These actions are separately identifiable, relating to specific
DBOPENs, and can be analyzed and reported by DBAudit. The
DBAudit utility allows database administrators to read IMAGE
logfiles to analyze database modifications.
Various detail or summary
reports provide a wealth of data relating to the database
accessors and modifications. Some columns of most reports
include: database, dataset, device (where the database is
accessed), logon MPE user and account, program name, group
and account, IMAGE intrinsic type, item name and contents,
etc. DBAudit provides an easy method for generating database
transaction analysis reports.
