Re: AUDITs

It's been a while since I used auditing in anger (And explained to a novice developer that he wasn't as clever as he thought he was...) but my references say it goes something like this under 8i - I'm afraid I don't have a 7.3.4 instance to check the syntax against

'All audit information is stored in the SYS.AUD$ table'
'Oracle retrieves information on what is being audited from three data
dictionary views: DBA_PRIV_AUDIT_OPTS, DBA_STMT_AUDIT_OPTS, DBA_OBJ_AUDIT_OPTS' (Oracle SQL&PL/SQL Annotated Archives)

NOAUDIT will reverse the various audit options (DBA Handbook)

So if something like 'audit session by access whenever not successful;' has turned auditing on, you can look at it using 'select * from dba_stmt_audit_opts;'
and turn it off with 'noaudit session;'

Hope that helps

For the last hour or more I've tried to RTFM, but I have been unable to find anything which gives me a clue.

Below are some AUDIT_ACTIONS & their counts from the AUD$ view.

       100 LOGON                                     3279
       102 LOGOFF BY CLEANUP  213771
        55 SET ROLE                            634706
       103 SESSION REC                1417453
       101 LOGOFF                             6226129


When an AUDIT command is issued which table/view gets updated/inserted?

How do I turn off/disable the LOGOFF auditing?
