Record Log Management actions on audit log files

On CPS console, on System menu, on System Settings web page, there is Log Management section.
On this section, user can update Log Management parameters – number of days to retain log files, Destination address, log files to be collected.

Currently, when user enables this feature – by filling parameters – or disable this feature – by clearing parameters – there is only “runtime” records written on trace.log file, but no records written on audit log files. This RFE is to ask to create log record on audit log file - filename is /var/log/purescale/audit – for following actions  :

- When a user enables this feature, write a log record on audit log file. This record will contain the userid, the action “enable”, the list of parameters filled with their value.

- When a user disables this feature, write a log record on audit log file. This record will contain the userid, the action “disable”.

- When a user changes a parameter on this feature, write a log record on audit log file. This record will contain the userid, the action “update”, the list of parameters updated (in case there are several changed on the same action), with their new value.
