Auditing is a standard clause. I won't say that it's harmless, because a software audit in a large organization can be rather disruptive, but you'll find that pretty much all commercial software has it. I can see why. If you have reason to believe that a company isn't properly licensing things,

Right to audit is an inherent part of a software license, I wouldn't read too much into it, and PLEASE don't subconsciously try to paint Oracle as a bad guy until you have had a chance to become familiar with other similar licenses. (After all, this is an Oracle-sponsored forum, isn't
