Because audit records may grows up to undesired size. Today I will show you one of the easy way to care aud$ table.
Scenario:
- Create new tablespace
- Create new archive table
- Create procedure
- Create Scheduler or Cron Job
- Execute and check result
Firstly I will create new tablespace for my achived aud table.
SQL> create tablespace arch_tbs
datafile '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/ulfet_db/arch_tbs01.dbf'
size 500M;
Tablespace created.
-- you can set more space
SQL> alter tablespace arch_tbs add datafile '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/ulfet_db/arch_tbs02.dbf' size 500M;
Tablespace altered.
Now I will create new table with aud$ table structure but new table will be range partitioned.
--You can create daily/monthly/yearly partition also subpartition too.
To get table structure I use dbms_metadata.get_ddl package`s procedure.
SQL> set pagesize 1000
SQL> select
to_char(dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE', 'AUD$'))
from dual;
TO_CHAR(DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL('TABLE','AUD$'))

You can create scheduler and set:
SQL> BEGIN
sys.dbms_scheduler.create_job(
job_name => 'PURGE_AUDIT_TABLE',
job_type => 'PLSQL_BLOCK',
job_action => 'begin purge_audit_trail(10); end;',

job_class => '"DEFAULT_JOB_CLASS"',
comments => 'Audit Trail Purge',
auto_drop => FALSE,
enabled => TRUE
);
END;
/
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL>
Check
SQL> select owner, job_name, job_name, program_owner,
program_name, enabled, last_start_date, next_run_date
from dba_scheduler_jobs where job_name like '%AUD%'
But I will create cron job and this script will work every day of months :
5,15,25 (3 times per months) at 01:00 a.m.
[oracle@localhost ~]$ crontab -l
0 01 5,15,25 * * /home/oracle/audit_purge_table.sh
Script is audit_purge_table.sh
[oracle@localhost ~]$ vi audit_purge_table.sh
#! /bin/sh
. /home/oracle/.bashrc
export ORACLE_SID=ulfetdb
sqlplus -S '/as sysdba' <<NEOF>>/home/audit_ptable.log
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
begin
SYS.purge_audit_trail2(3); --purge older 3 days
end;
/
exit;
NEOF
Now checking script`s output log:
[oracle@localhost ~]$ tail -10 audit_purge_table.log
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Checking alert log:

That`s all.
If a comatose person were to earn an interest of 1 million USD annually on the sum paid to him as compensatory damages - would this be considered an achievement of his? To succeed to earn 1 mill... AM.CO.ZA
