Answer
To stop stap on a Redhat version 5 OS. Take note! this will not work on Redhat version 6.
1)
Log on to the database server system by using the root account.
2)
Open the /etc/inittab file for editing. For example with vi
3)
a) Locate and b) comment the following statement in the /etc/inittab file. Comment by adding # at the start of each statement:
utap:2345:respawn:/usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/guard_stap /usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/guard_tap.ini
This is how it should look like after you added #
#utap:2345:respawn:/usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/guard_stap /usr/local/guardium/guard_stap/guard_tap.ini
c) Save changes.
d) Check /etc/inittab that you changes was saved ok.
