Readme File for IBM^® Spectrum Symphony RFE 149533

Readme file for: IBM Spectrum Symphony

Product release: 7.3.0

Fix ID: sym-7.3-build600402-jpmc

Publication date: May 11, 2021

 

If the container user in the application profile (defined in the Docker > ContainerDefinition > containerUser parameter within the Docker section) is different from container user in the current system's application profile, this enhancement checks whether that current user has the required SOAM_CONFIGURE_DOCKER_SERVICE_OS_EXECUTION_USER permission, and if so, allows that use to add or update the application.

 

Without this enhancement, the system will always check for the permission, even if the container user defined in the application profile is the same user as the one in the current system's application profile. This enhancement saves the system from always having to check for the permission.
