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
