Problem IT22624
|
Status: Closed |
DB2VAL FAILS TO VALIDATE SYSADMIN AUTHORITY IF SYSADM_GROUP IS LESS THAN 8 CHAR LONG |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / B10 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
When the value of sysadm_group is less than 8 chars long, the
remaining bytes get padded with spaces. E.i. "DB2ADM ".
The spaces cause the check of whether user is in the group to
fail due to group not found.
Trimming trailing spaces should fix this problem.
Update:
The lookup logic for db2val should be changed to the same one
used by the Engine |
