Re: Cktmpl.def, Ingres SUID permissions not inherited by tape backup command

I don't believe that this is related to the SHELL, in this case
checkpointing to disk would fail too. Also I think we can exclude any
issue with LIBPATH as the iimerge isn't linked dynamically on AIX and
the ckpdb command works fine even when LIBPATH is not set. For further
analysis, I would put the dsmc command in a simple shell script, make
it setuid ingres and then run it as non-ingres. When this doesn't work
either, we can exclude any issue with Ingres, looking for a solution
on the OS side.
From an Ingres point of view, you need to be sure that the checkpoint
template file is owned by ingres, otherwise that template file is
rejected and the checkpoint would fail.
By the way, what is the exact error message you get?
