Hi list!

I was wondering if anyone found particulaly useful Apps from the Splunk website 
that we may have overlooked?
We've been using it for about a year and have been using it for multiple 
applications on multiple types of databases, not just Oracle.
There's also a new 6.0 release if you haven't seen that.  Check 
http://www.splunk.com/

Splunk has a limited command line history, but you can get all the search 
commands from the _audit index
A search something like
index=_audit action=search search="*" NOT maintain | table _time search
Should work for you.   Just keep adding NOT  ? statements to weed out want you 
don't want to see.
Might save you rewriting what one of your other DBAs already developed.

Some references.

BTW auditors generally like Splunk because it doesn't throw anything away.
