Question & Answer
Question
According to the IBM Security Guardium official documentation, when performing the Hadoop integration using Hortonworks and Apache Ranger, the Hadoop administrator must setup a list of parameters in the log4j configuration in order to complete the integration.
One of these parameters is the "log4j.appender.guardlistener.RemoteHost".
Consider an environment where 2 S-TAPs are deployed;
- monitoring HBASE traffic and
- other for monitoring everything else.
Given the above conditions, the following question arises:
Where does the "log4j.appender.guardlistener.RemoteHost" parameter should be pointed to? localhost, the host where the S-TAP is installed (if so, which one(s)), or the Collector.
