Vinay Chella commented on CASSANDRA-12151:
------------------------------------------

Hi Jason,

Yes, we can set audit_logs_dir either from -D jvm arg or from 
{{cassandra.yaml}} - {{audit_logging_options::audit_logs_dir}}. Idea is to be 
inconsistent with rest of the project's log configuration process by setting 
them via   {{-D jvm arg}}, hence naming is kept inconsistent with logs - 
{{cassandra.logdir.audit}}. I have also updated the documentation for the same.

{quote}Operators cannot, in an obvious manner, adjust the following 
AuditLogOptions options: 
audit_logs_dir/block/max_queue_weight/max_log_size/roll_cycle. They are 
basically hidden yaml options: you can set them, but you have to know they 
exist. I understand these are more advanced options, but we should document 
them either in the yaml or the doc page.
{quote}
Yes, they intentionally kept there for advanced configurations. Agree with you 
on documenting them. Updated the documentation for this.

> we would like a way to enable cassandra to log database activity being done 
> on our server.
> It should show username, remote address, timestamp, action type, keyspace, 
> column family, and the query statement.
> it should also be able to log connection attempt and changes to the 
> user/roles.
> I was thinking of making a new keyspace and insert an entry for every 
> activity that occurs.
> Then It would be possible to query for specific activity or a query targeting 
> a specific keyspace and column family.
