Hi Eric,

there is an undocumented way to perform a database audit online, just
issue:

     adsm>audit db (the parameters are the same as for dsmserv auditdb).

I prefer doing this with fix=no as a preview (is really a fix needed, how
long does the process last)
and for fixes I'd always shut down the server to prevent the database from
inconsistencies.

Regards
