    Policy with a large number of wildcard
    database users causing filter compiler
    to fail.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Internal memory object allocated for compiled filter was
    insufficient to support large number of filter values
    containing wildcards. Large number of filter values containing
    wildcards is now supported by increasing the internal size of
    the memory object.
