Modifying the database version and patch level

Manually add the database version and patch level to override a failed vulnerability assessment.

About this task

When the database version and patch level is lower than the defined levels, the security assessment is designed to fail. To override this, the recommended patch level and database version can be manually added to the Group Builder.
Note: For Netezza users, the database version and patch level must match the defined level for the security assessment to pass.
