The following changes need to be done in WebSphere 8.5.x

In WebSphere Console Go to Servers>Server Types>Websphere application servers
Select the server name. In Server Infrastructure section on right,
Select Java and Process Management
then select Process definition
Under Additional properties select Java virtual machine
Under Additional properties select Custom properties
To create the new property
click the New button
set the name to 'webservices.unify.faults'
set the value to 'false'.

Restart the Application Server

For the same request the response will now look like below

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
<soapenv:Body>
<soapenv:Fault>
<soapenv:Code>
<soapenv:Value>soapenv:Receiver</soapenv:Value>
</soapenv:Code>
<soapenv:Reason>
<soapenv:Text xml:lang="en">BMXAA4211E - Database error number -803 has occurred when operating on PERSON : Person=STEVE. Report the error to the owner of the deployment.</soapenv:Text>
</soapenv:Reason>
</soapenv:Fault>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
