Configuring SAP HANA

...

 The following SQL statement enables auditing in the system database.

Code Block
ALTER SYSTEM ALTER CONFIGURATION ('nameserver.ini', 'system') set ('auditing configuration', 'global_auditing_state') = 'true';

 The next statement sets the audit target to database table syslog (the default is SYSLOGPROTOCOL).

Code Block
ALTER SYSTEM ALTER CONFIGURATION ('nameserver.ini', 'system') set ('auditing configuration', 'default_audit_trail_type') = '

...

SYSLOGPROTOCOL';

 If auditing is active, certain actions are always audited and are therefore not available for inclusion in user-defined audit polices. These actions are audited by the internal audit policy MandatoryAuditPolicy.

Description

Protocol                      

TCP

Protocol that LCP uses to receive eventsUDP

The default protocol for syslog. The collector can also accept logs in TCP.

Note: While TCP offers guaranteed delivery of log packets, it places a larger overhead on the LCP. To balance TCP for reliability over UDP for speed/simplicity, contact the Accenture MxDR onboarding team.

Host Names/IP Addresses

*

The SAP HANA host name or the IP address that forward syslog messages to the LCP. 

The default value '*' means all hosts. 

Possible values are: 

  • IP address

  • host name

  • ANY

  • any

  • *

Specify ANY, any, or * to allow any SAP HANA to send events to the LCP, or specify multiple computer names. Separate multiple computer names or IP addresses with commas.

Signatures    

HDB_SYSTEMDB

The signatures used by the LCP to collect the necessary log events from the logs generated by the SAP HANA.

If there are more than one signature, then the signatures must be seperated by a comma (,).

If you add a new sensor configuration other than the default one, the Signatures field is empty. Then you must manually enter appropriate signatures. If the Signatures field is empty, the signature based filtering of messages does not happen. 

Port Number    

601514

The port number to which you have configured SAP HANA to send syslog messages. default port number for syslog. For TCP, the default port is 601.

Note: The LCP can be configured to listen on a non-standard port, please advise the Accenture MxDR onboarding team if this is a requirement.
