CFInternet Audit File

CFInternet creates an audit record for every file transfer request attempted.

The audit file name is in the following format: CFCCAudit_YYYYMMDD.xml

The audit file is created in the directory defined by the Global.xml auditdirectory parameter. If this parameter is not defined, the file is created in the current working directory. Note that the user can override the auditdirectory defined in the Global.xml file by specifying the AD parameter on the command line.

If the file defined by the auditdirectory parameter does not exist, then TIBCO MFT Internet Server creates the file. If the file does exist, TIBCO MFT Internet Server appends any audit records to the end of this file. One audit file is created for each day that a TIBCO MFT Internet Server file transfer is attempted. This file is created in XML format. There is one XML tag for each audit record created. Within each tag are attributes to define each field written to the audit log.

Below is a sample of the TIBCO MFT Internet Server audit file. Because the audit file is written using XML, it can be opened as a spreadsheet by Microsoft Excel. Likewise, it can be opened by any other editor that supports XML.
