Allocate enough storage capacity for at least one week of audit records when audit records are not immediately sent to a central audit record storage facility.
If audit records are stored on a partition made specifically for audit records, use the "X" program to resize the partition with sufficient space to contain one week of audit records.
If audit records are not stored on a partition made specifically for audit records, a new partition with sufficient space will need be to be created.
