If it is added, it should be appended to the end of the record since it

another value if there is a non-fatal warning?)

This is not a searchable field, so it can go anywhere. If it is searchable,
ausearch expects ordering of other searchable fields.


Thank you for the clarification Steve.

I'll add "errno=" right after "cause=".

Also, "errno" will always be present - will be set to 0 if status is "success" (res=1) and a non-zero value for failure (res=0)

thanks,
