Re: DDL auditing - *Extremely* detailed

One issue I've come across with using logminer to determine who's done what, is if changes are made via stored programs (procedures, triggers and the such) which is not uncommon, then the USERNAME column is populated with the owner of the stored program, not the actual user who's done the dirty work.

Can be a trap for the unwary.

Cheers

Richard

One alternative way would be to use logminer if your transaction_auditing parameter is set true (default in 9.2), that way you'll get quite a lot of information about the user into the redolog as well, when they start the DDL recursive transaction...
