How to configure auditd with custom index?

Hi,
I have server's audit logs configured to forward to a custom index called prod-sudo, not main. How can I can configure Linux Auditd to work with a custom index?

Also will Linux Auditd work with Ubuntu. I see from the TA README that audit_types.csv is derived from Redhat.

Thanks

The app will automatically detect and use the indices your linux:audit events are indexed into for searches.

The app works with Auditd events generated by Ubuntu hosts, however Canonical appear to have changed Auditd so it seems to not log as many audit types as with Red Hat-based distributions.
