Check Text (C-75486r1091018_chk) |
Verify that OL 9 uses a separate file system/partition for "/var/log" with the following command:
$ mount | grep /var/log
UUID=c274f65f-c5b5-4486-b021-bee96feb8b21 /var/log xfs noatime 1 2
If a separate entry for "/var/log" is not in use, this is a finding. |
Fix Text (F-75393r1091019_fix) |
