Template Set entity
Describes a template set definition. A Template Set entity is created for each template set, which is a set of template items for a particular operating system or database.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Template Set ID | A unique identifier for the template set, numbered sequentially |
| OS Type | Operating system: Unix or Windows |
| DB Type | Database Type (Oracle, MS-SQL, DB2®, Sybase, Informix®, etc.) or N/A for an operating system template |
| Template Set Name | The template name |
| IsDefault | Indicates whether or not this template is the default for the specified OS type and DB type combination |
| Editable | Indicates whether or not this template can be modified. The default Guardium® templates cannot be modified. In addition, once a template set has been used in a CAS instance, it cannot be modified. However, a template set can always be cloned and the cloned set can be modified. |
| Timestamp | Date and time the template was last updated |
Template entity
Describes a template item within a template set.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Template ID | A unique identifier for the template set, numbered sequentially |
| Access Name | Depending on the Audit Type, this is the OS or SQL script, environment or registry value, or a file name or a file name pattern |
| Audit Type | The type of monitored item |
| Audit Frequency (minutes) | The maximum interval (in minutes) between tests |
| Use MD5 | Indicates whether or not the comparison is done by calculating a checksum using the MD5 algorithm and comparing that value with the value calculated the last time the item was checked. The default is to not use MD5. If MD5 is used but the size of the raw data is greater than the MD5 Size Limit configured for the CAS host, the MD5 calculation and comparison will be skipped. Regardless of whether or not MD5 is used, both the current value of the last modified timestamp for the item and the size of the item are compared with the values saved the last time the item was checked. |
| Save Data | Indicates if the Keep Data checkbox has been marked. If so, previous versions of the item can be compared with the current version. |
| Description | Optional description of the template |
| Timestamp | Date and time the template was last updated. |
