Just to clarify, Hibernate does not expose hibermate.generateDdl parameter. I assume that you mentioned the attribute of Spring's org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter which in the end sets hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto to update. Which database are you using? Attached simple application works fine on Oracle and I can see REVINFO_SEQUENCE in ENVERS_AUDIT schema.
