Nice feature, I wasn't aware of that. Probably heard it somewhere and promptly forgot. :)

You could do this yourself though simply by sending the audit trail to the OS rather than Oracle. That has been a std feature for a long time.

Also, is there any white paper for "Oracle DBA SOX Compliance"?

The problem with SOX is that it is not well defined.

What constitutes compliance is defined by a company and its auditors.

Whatever agreement is reached will probably not work as is for any other company.
