Ubuntu's default for ``space_left_action`` is ``SUSPEND``, which actually
|
|
only suspends audit logging. That could be a security issue, so ``SYSLOG``
|
|
is recommended and is set by default be openstack-ansible-security. If syslog
|
|
messages are being sent to remote servers, these log messages should alert
|
|
an administrator about the disk being almost full. There are additional options
|
|
available, like ``EXEC``, ``SINGLE`` or ``HALT``.
|
|
|
|
To configure a different ``space_left_action``, set the following Ansible
|
|
variable:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
space_left_action = SYSLOG
|
|
|
|
For details on available settings and what they do, run ``man auditd.conf``.
|
|
Some options can cause the host to go offline until the issue is fixed.
|
|
Deployers are urged to **carefully read the auditd documentation** prior to
|
|
changing the ``space_left_action`` setting from the default.
