The MQ Appliance network device must generate an immediate alert when allocated audit record storage volume reaches 75 percent of repository maximum audit record storage capacity.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>If security personnel are not notified immediately upon storage volume utilization reaching 75 percent, they are unable to plan for storage capacity expansion. This could lead to the loss of audit information. Note that while the MQ Appliance network device must generate the alert, notification may be done by a management server. At the syslog server, set up event notification triggers for the following event codes: 0x80c0006a, 0x82400067, 0x00330034, 0x80400080. Note: The above notifications will occur if there is an interruption in logging information being sent to its intended external logging target. Configuring notification of storage capacity events occurring at the external logging server (e.g., 75 percent capacity) is the responsibility of that server's server administrator.
