Re: Auditing of SQL Statements via STRSQL

Well, a couple ideas come to mind.
1. There are system objects that hold everything done in a STRSQL session. This command dumps those for user MIKE to a spooled file: 

DMPSYSOBJ ISQLSTMIKE* QRECOVERY  TYPE(19) SUBTYPE(EE)
If you know the user AND the job, you could dump these to a spooled file, then process this in a suitable fashion, perhaps comparing to past entries.
2. Turn on DB monitoring - this can be expensive, although you could limit to things using the job notification exit or maybe use security auditing on the STRSQL command, wait on the audit journal, then turn on monitoring whenever the command is reported as being used. Not simple, and I don't know if there is an entry in the journal for when the user has exited. The file output of STRDBMON is daunting but manageable - you can get all the statement info you need. 

Eh?

I can see where I am able to turn on "auditing" of commands that a user
types in QAUDJRN on a user by user basis.

Is there a way to log/audit things done in SQL via STRSQL and typing in
commands that way to update tables.

(This is in response to a request re: Sarbanes/Oxley.....not for a rogue
user who we are watching)

Thanks,
