To disable auditing only temporarily, the audit administrator can disable all policies through Audit Policy Maintenance.
To turn off auditing permanently (with no intention of ever re-enabling it), the audit administrator can use the PROUTIL utility. No existing data will be lost. For more information about disabling auditing, see OpenEdge Data Management: Database Administration.
Note: Pre-Release 10.1 OpenEdge clients are blocked from access to the database until all the data in the audit tables has been deleted.
