Without additional information on why MON_ADM is needed versus SQL_ADM, I will return this as a duplicate of idea https://bigblue.aha.io/ideas/DB24LUW-I-551
Paul Bird’s comment option #2 looks great for us: “revamp the SYSMON authority so that it is now relevant to the modern Db2 monitoring paradigm by giving it implicit execute privilege on the MON* monitoring functions.”
After review, we have a couple of questions on which we could use feedback to help us evaluate this request.
#1 The original motivation behind the SQL Administration authority (SQLADM) was to provide a light-weight authority similar to what you request (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPGG_11.1.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.sec.doc/doc/c0053931.html ).
- Could you tell us what portions of this authority are considered to be too much or dangerous and thus require an introduction of a further subset authority?
#2 Another request has suggested that we revamp the SYSMON authority so that it is now relevant to the modern Db2 monitoring paradigm by giving it implicit execute privilege on the MON* monitoring functions.
- Would this approach also meet your requirement?
