PH55883: DATASOURCE SIGNON PASSWORD LONGER THAN 1024 CHARACTERS THROWS DPR-ERR-2079 ERROR

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• The issue is with JDBC AWS Postrgres Data Source connection.
  While setting up the connection for the first time, the sign on
  password for the datasource(which is generated by IAM, and is
  1300 characters long), is accepted and the connection tests
  successfully.
  Since the IAM token expires after 45 minutes, the data source
  password needs to be updated again. The second time when you go
  to update the password, we run into the error DPR-ERR-2079
  Firewall Security Rejection. Your request was rejected by the
  security firewall.
  
  Tried on multiple browsers, using direct dispatcher URI as well.
