APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
InfoSphere Information Server security is defined as "Internal Registry". A new user is added as "Administrator" and with Credentials assigned to a new unix user. This unix user created a project sucessfully with the 'dsadmin' command ./dsadmin -domain .... -createproject <project name> - location <project directory> Status code = 0 This new user was not able to update project properties: ./dsadmin -domain -enablejobadmin TRUE <project name> ERROR: (DSSetProjectProperty) ACCESS DENIED: You need to be an administrator to use this function. Status code = -100 DSJE_NOTADMINUSER
Local fix
The property can be updated: - by the owner of the DataStage Engine ('dsadm'). using the command line tool 'dsadmin'. - by the new user with DataStage Administrator
Problem summary
The dsadmin -enablejobadmin option fails if the DataStage server OS user id is not dsadm even if the user has the DataStage Administrator suite role. This, and several other option, uses the DSSetProjectProperty basic subroutine which applies the old IsAdmin test.
Problem conclusion
Fixed dsadmin to do a suite role-check before calling DSSetProjectProperty and if the user has the DataStage Administrator suite role then pass a flag to DSSetProjectProperty indicating that the old IsAdmin test can be skipped.
Temporary fix
