Group privileges and views

by Troels Arvin <troels@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 23, 2008 at 02:35 PM

Hello,

Quoting http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r5/topic/
com.ibm.db2.luw.sql.ref.doc/doc/r0000935.html :

  Group privileges are not considered for any table or
  view specified in the CREATE VIEW statement.

I discovered this today because a user complained that she couldn't 
create a simple view referring to a table to which she had all privileges.

Why does DB2 care if the user or the group has the required SELECT 
privilege on the base table?

(Managing access on a per-user basis is really a problem for us, we need 
to be able to do it by groups. Otherwise the DBA needs to be involved in 
too many tasks, instead of having the help desk handle it through central 
group membership administration.)
