bsmconv(1M)		System Administration Commands		   bsmconv(1M)

NAME
       bsmconv, bsmunconv - enable or disable Solaris Auditing

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/security/bsmconv [rootdir]...

       /etc/security/bsmunconv [rootdir]...

DESCRIPTION
       The bsmconv and bsmunconv scripts are used to enable or disable the BSM
       features on a Solaris system. The optional argument rootdir is  a  list
       of  one	or more root directories of diskless clients that have already
       been configured. See smdiskless(1M).

       To enable or disable BSM on a diskless client, a server,	 or  a	stand-
       alone system, logon as super-user to the system being converted and use
       the bsmconv or bsmunconv commands without any options.

       To enable or disable BSM	 on  a	diskless  client  from	that  client's
       server,	logon  to the server as super-user and use bsmconv, specifying
       the root directory of each diskless client  you	wish  to  affect.  For
       example, the command:

	 myhost# bsmconv /export/root/client1 /export/root/client2

       enables	BSM  on	 the two machines named client1 and client2. While the
       command:

	 myhost# bsmconv

       enables BSM only on the machine called myhost. It is no	longer	neces‐
       sary to enable BSM on both the server and its diskless clients.

       After running bsmconv the system can be configured by editing the files
       in /etc/security. Each diskless client has its own copy	of  configura‐
       tion  files  in	its root directory. You might want to edit these files
       before rebooting each client.

       Following the completion	 of  either  script,  the  affected  system(s)
       should  be rebooted to allow the auditing subsystem to come up properly
       initialized.

FILES
       The following files are created by bsmconv:

       /etc/security/device_maps

	   Administrative file defining the mapping of device special files to
	   allocatable device names.

       /etc/security/device_allocate

	   Administrative file defining parameters for device allocation.
