Error description
After an AUDIT MEDIACONTROLS(CLOUD(cloudname)) command was issued and it processed normally for a few hours, an HTTP 401 occurred and the following message surfaced: ARC1581I UNEXPECTED HTTP STATUS 401 DURING A GET FOR URI ARC1581I (CONT.) uri ERRTEXT HTTP/1. This caused AUDIT processing to end prematurely. In this case, the HTTP 401 was due to the authentication token expiring.
