NAME
       nfslogd - nfs logging daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/lib/nfs/nfslogd

DESCRIPTION
       The  nfslogd  daemon  provides  operational  logging to the Solaris NFS
       server. It is the nfslogd daemon's job to generate the activity log  by
       analyzing  the RPC operations processed by the NFS server. The log will
       only be generated for file systems exported with logging enabled.  This
       is  specified  at  file system export time by means of the share_nfs(8)
       command.


       NFS server logging is not supported on Solaris machines that are  using
       NFS Version 4.


       Each  record  in the log file includes a time stamp, the IP address (or
       hostname if it can be resolved) of  the  client  system,  the  file  or
       directory  name  the operation was performed on, and the type of opera‐
       tion. In the basic format, the operation can either be an input (i)  or
       output (o) operation. The basic format of the NFS server log is compat‐
       ible with the log format generated by the  Washington  University  FTPd
       daemon.  The  log format can be extended to include directory modifica‐
       tion operations, such as mkdir, rmdir, and remove. The extended  format
       is  not  compatible  with the Washington University FTPd daemon format.
       See nfslog.conf(5) for details.


       The NFS server logging mechanism is divided in two  phases.  The  first
       phase  is  performed  by  the  NFS kernel module, which records raw RPC
       requests and their results in work buffers backed by permanent storage.
       The  location  of  the  work  buffers is specified in the /etc/nfs/nfs‐
       log.conf file. Refer to nfslog.conf(5) for more information. The second
       phase  involves the nfslogd user-level daemon, which periodically reads
       the work buffers, interprets the raw RPC  information,  groups  related
       RPC  operations into single transaction records, and generates the out‐
       put log. The nfslogd daemon then sleeps waiting for more information to
       be  logged  to  the  work  buffers.  The amount of time that the daemon
       sleeps can be  configured  by  modifying  the  IDLE_TIME  parameter  in
       /etc/default/nfslogd.  The  work buffers are intended for internal con‐
       sumption of the nfslogd daemon.


       NFS operations use file handles as arguments instead of path names. For
       this  reason  the  nfslogd  daemon needs to maintain a database of file
       handle to path mappings in order to log the path name  associated  with
       an  operation  instead  of the corresponding file handle. A file handle
       entry is added to the database when a client performs a lookup or other
       NFS operation that returns a file handle to the client.


       Once  an NFS client obtains a file handle from a server, it can hold on
       to it for an indefinite time, and later use it as an  argument  for  an
       NFS operation on the file or directory. The NFS client can use the file
       handle even after the server reboots. Because  the  database  needs  to
       survive server reboots, it is backed by permanent storage. The location
       of  the  database  is  specified  by  the  fhtable  parameter  in   the
       /etc/nfs/nfslog.conf  file.  This database is intended for the internal
       use of the nfslogd daemon.


       In order to keep the size of the file handle mapping  database  manage‐
       able,  nfslogd prunes the database periodically. It removes file handle
       entries that have not been accessed in more than a specified amount  of
       time.  The PRUNE_TIMEOUT configurable parameter in /etc/default/nfslogd
       specifies the interval length between successive runs  of  the  pruning
       process.  A  file handle record will be removed if it has not been used
       since the last time the pruning process was executed.  Pruning  of  the
       database  can  effectively  be disabled by setting the PRUNE_TIMEOUT as
       high as INT_MAX.


       When pruning is enabled, there is always a risk that a client may  have
       held  on  to a file handle longer than the PRUNE_TIMEOUT and perform an
       NFS operation on the file handle after the matching record in the  map‐
       ping database had been removed. In such case, the pathname for the file
       handle will not be resolved, and the log will include the  file  handle
       instead of the pathname.


       There  are  various configurable parameters that affect the behavior of
       the nfslogd daemon. These parameters are found in  /etc/default/nfslogd
       and are described below:

       UMASK                      Sets  the  file mode for the log files, work
                                  buffer files and file handle  mapping  data‐
                                  base.


       MIN_PROCESSING_SIZE        Specifies  the  minimum size, in bytes, that
                                  the buffer file must reach before processing
                                  the  work information and writing to the log
                                  file. The value of MIN_PROCESSING_SIZE  must
                                  be between 1 and ulimit.


       IDLE_TIME                  Specifies  the  amount  of time, in seconds,
                                  the daemon should sleep  while  waiting  for
                                  more  information to be placed in the buffer
                                  file. IDLE_TIME also  determines  how  often
                                  the  configuration  file will be reread. The
                                  value of IDLE_TIME must  be  between  1  and
                                  INT_MAX.


       MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE          The  nfslogd  periodically  cycles its logs.
                                  MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE specifies the maximum num‐
                                  ber of log files to save. When MAX_LOGS_PRE‐
                                  SERVE is reached, the oldest files  will  be
                                  overwritten  as  new  log files are created.
                                  These files will be saved  with  a  numbered
                                  extension,  beginning  with  filename.0. The
                                  oldest file will have the  highest  numbered
                                  extension  up  to  the  value configured for
                                  MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE.     The     value      of
                                  MAX_LOGS_PRESERVE  must  be  between  1  and
                                  INT_MAX.


       CYCLE_FREQUENCY            Specifies how often, in hours, the log files
                                  are   cycled.  CYCLE_FREQUENCY  is  used  to
                                  ensure that the log files  do  not  get  too
                                  large.  The value of CYCLE_FREQUENCY must be
                                  between 1 and INT_MAX.


       MAPPING_UPDATE_INTERVAL    Specifies the  time  interval,  in  seconds,
                                  between  updates  of the records in the file
                                  handle to path mapping  tables.  Instead  of
                                  updating  the  atime  of  a record each time
                                  that record is accessed, it is only  updated
                                  if  it has aged based on this parameter. The
                                  record access time is used  by  the  pruning
                                  routine  to  determine  whether  the  record
                                  should be removed  from  the  database.  The
                                  value  of  this  parameter must be between 1
                                  and INT_MAX.


       PRUNE_TIMEOUT              Specifies when a database record times  out,
                                  in hours. If the time that elapsed since the
                                  record was last  accessed  is  greater  than
                                  PRUNE_TIMEOUT  then the record can be pruned
                                  from the database.  The  default  value  for
                                  PRUNE_TIMEOUT  is  168  hours  (7 days). The
                                  value of PRUNE_TIMEOUT must be between 1 and
                                  INT_MAX.
