I want to see the VPD Predicate in the SQL statement in a trace file, so I log on as the user and do the following (based upon Pete Finnigan's "Oracle Row Level Security: Part 2" document):

SQL> alter session set events '10730 trace name context forever';

Session altered.

SQL> set autotrace on explain

Unfortunately the result of the last is:

SP2-0613: Unable to verify PLAN_TABLE format or existence SP2-0611: Error enabling EXPLAIN report

My DBA is at a loss. Can anyone help?
