- If automatic updates are not enabled, download and install the most recent version of the
following RPMs from the IBM® Support Website onto your QRadar
Console:
- Protocol JDBC RPM
- DSMCommon RPM
- Oracle RDBMS Audit Record DSM RPM
- Configure your Oracle RDBMS Audit Record device to write audit logs.
- If QRadar does not
automatically detect the log source, add an Oracle RDBMS Audit Record log source on the QRadar Console. The following
tables describe the parameters that require specific values to collect audit events from Oracle
RDBMS Audit Record:
Table 2. Oracle RDBMS Audit Record Syslog log source parameters Parameter Value Log Source type Oracle RDBMS Audit Record Protocol Configuration Syslog Log Source Identifier Type a unique identifier for the log source.
Table 3. Oracle RDBMS Audit Record JDBC log source parameters Parameter Value Log Source type Oracle RDBMS Audit Record Protocol Configuration JDBC Log Source Identifier Type a name for the log source. The name can't contain spaces and must be unique among all log sources of the log source type that is configured to use the JDBC protocol.
If the log source collects events from a single appliance that has a static IP address or host name, use the IP address or host name of the appliance as all or part of the Log Source Identifier value; for example, 192.168.1.1 or JDBC192.168.1.1. If the log source doesn't collect events from a single appliance that has a static IP address or host name, you can use any unique name for the Log Source Identifier value; for example, JDBC1, JDBC2.
Database Type Oracle Database Name The name of the database from where you collect audit logs. IP or Hostname The IP or host name of the Oracle database. Port Enter the JDBC port. The JDBC port must match the listener port that is configured on the remote database. The database must permit incoming TCP connections. The valid range is 1 - 65535.
The defaults are:
- MSDE - 1433
- Postgres - 5432
- MySQL - 3306
- Sybase - 1521
- Oracle - 1521
- Informix® - 9088
- DB2® - 50000
If a database instance is used with the MSDE database type, you must leave the Port field blank.
Username A user account to connect to the database. The user must have AUDIT_ADMIN or AUDIT_VIEWER permissions. Password The password that is required to connect to the database. Predefined Query Select a predefined database query for the log source. If a predefined query is not available for the log source type, administrators can select the none option.
Table Name The name of the table or view that includes the event records. The table name can include the following special characters: dollar sign ($), number sign (#), underscore (_), en dash (-), and period (.). Select List The list of fields to include when the table is polled for events. You can use a comma-separated list or type an asterisk (*) to select all fields from the table or view. If a comma-separated list is defined, the list must contain the field that is defined in the Compare Field. Compare Field For Oracle 9i or Oracle 10g Release 1, type Qradar_time.
For Oracle 10g Release 2, Oracle 11g, or Oracle 12c (non-unified auditing), type extended_timestamp.
For Oracle 12c (unified auditing), type event_timestamp.
Use Oracle Encryption Oracle Encryption and Data Integrity settings is also known as Oracle Advanced Security.
If selected, Oracle JDBC connections require the server to support similar Oracle Data Encryption settings as the client.

configured correctly.Important: Due to formatting issues, paste the message format into a text editor and then remove any carriage return or line feed characters.The following table shows a sample normalized event message from Oracle RDBMS Audit Record:
