What are the requirements?

Hi, Santhosh,

Takea look at the options in the db2audit command, it should give you
plenty to keep the IT security people happy.

Essentially, you have to:
1) Decide which security-related events to capture with "db2audit
configure...."
2) Start the routine with "db2audit start"
3)Periodically you can flush the results into a readable format with
"db2audit extract file <filename> " and look at the resulting file
4) Don´t remember "db2audit stop" when you don´t want to audit stuff
any more

More options in the Command Reference book.

Cheerio,

Willy
