APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When you have a username with more than 8 characters and strict
    permissions on a table, the load can fail as the username is not
    an exact match.
    

Local fix

  • If you change the userid (username) to be 8 characters or less,
    the HPL job loads as expected. Alternately, temporarily grant
    insert to public so this check is avoided.
