    Hi,

    Starting HMC V10, We have increased the size of the audit trail such that it can store more events.

    Thanks.

    Actualy, we seems to have only 1 month retention on the command lssvcevents -t console -d 365
    We would like to have more, 1 year for exemple, it could be usefull if we have an oracle audit for exemple.
    No we don't use rsyslog utilities
