Description
The Set-AzSqlServerAudit cmdlet changes the auditing settings of an Azure SQL server. To use the cmdlet, use the ResourceGroupName and ServerName parameters to identify the server. When blob storage is a destination for audit logs, specify the StorageAccountResourceId parameter to determine the storage account for the audit logs and the StorageKeyType parameter to define the storage keys. If using blob storage as destination, you can also define retention for the audit logs by setting the value of the RetentionInDays parameter to define the period for the audit logs.
Examples
Example 1: Enable the blob storage auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -BlobStorageTargetState Enabled -StorageAccountResourceId "/subscriptions/7fe3301d-31d3-4668-af5e-211a890ba6e3/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/mystorage"
Example 2: Disable the blob storage auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -BlobStorageTargetState Disabled
Example 3: Enable the blob storage auditing policy of an Azure SQL server with filtering using a T-SQL predicate
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -BlobStorageTargetState Enabled -StorageAccountResourceId "/subscriptions/7fe3301d-31d3-4668-af5e-211a890ba6e3/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/mystorage" -PredicateExpression "statement <> 'select 1'"
Example 4: Remove the filtering setting from the auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -PredicateExpression ""
Example 5: Enable the event hub auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -EventHubTargetState Enabled -EventHubName "EventHubName" -EventHubAuthorizationRuleResourceId "EventHubAuthorizationRuleResourceId"
Example 6: Disable the event hub auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -EventHubTargetState Disabled
Example 7: Enable the log analytics auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -LogAnalyticsTargetState Enabled -WorkspaceResourceId "/subscriptions/4b9e8510-67ab-4e9a-95a9-e2f1e570ea9c/resourceGroups/insights-integration/providers/Microsoft.OperationalInsights/workspaces/viruela2"
Example 8: Disable the log analytics auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -LogAnalyticsTargetState Disabled
Example 9: Disable, through pipeline, the log analytics auditing policy of an Azure SQL server
Get-AzSqlServer -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" | Set-AzSqlServerAudit -LogAnalyticsTargetState Disabled
Example 10: Disable sending audit records of an Azure SQL server to blob storage, and enable sending them to log analytics.
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -LogAnalyticsTargetState Enabled -WorkspaceResourceId "/subscriptions/4b9e8510-67ab-4e9a-95a9-e2f1e570ea9c/resourceGroups/insights-integration/providers/Microsoft.OperationalInsights/workspaces/viruela2" -BlobStorageTargetState Disabled
Example 11: Enable sending audit records of an Azure SQL server to blob storage, event hub and log analytics.
Set-AzSqlServerAudit -ResourceGroupName "ResourceGroup01" -ServerName "Server01" -BlobStorageTargetState Enabled -StorageAccountResourceId "/subscriptions/7fe3301d-31d3-4668-af5e-211a890ba6e3/resourceGroups/resourcegroup01/providers/Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts/mystorage" -EventHubTargetState Enabled -EventHubName "EventHubName" -EventHubAuthorizationRuleResourceId "EventHubAuthorizationRuleResourceId" -LogAnalyticsTargetState Enabled -WorkspaceResourceId "/subscriptions/4b9e8510-67ab-4e9a-95a9-e2f1e570ea9c/resourceGroups/insights-integration/providers/Microsoft.OperationalInsights/workspaces/viruela2"
Parameters
-AsJob
Run cmdlet in the background
Type: | SwitchParameter |
Position: | Named |
Default value: | None |
Required: | False |
Accept pipeline input: | False |
Accept wildcard characters: | False |
-AuditActionGroup
The recommended set of action groups to use is the following combination - this will audit all the queries and stored procedures executed against the database, as well as successful and failed logins:
"BATCH_COMPLETED_GROUP",
"SUCCESSFUL_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP",
"FAILED_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP"
This above combination is also the set that is configured by default. These groups cover all SQL statements and stored procedures executed against the database, and should not be used in combination with other groups as this will result in duplicate audit logs.
