    Question:

     

    We have created a LINK from Oracle Database to MySQL DB. Using the
    link if we execute any query on Oracle, we get the response from
    MySQL. for e,g, SELECT "name" from
    "v_sec_check_sys_user"@SERVNOW_MYSQL_LINK where
    UPPER("user_name")=UPPER('name').

    But if we try to use the same query in Policy Server I get the error
    Optional feature not implemented. SERVNOW_MYSQL_LINK is a link created
    on Oracle which sends the request to MYSQL. We want to know if this is
    supported in any of the latest version.

    We'd like to know if CA Single Sign-On supports Oracle Create
    Database Link to MySQL Database.

     

    Environment:

     

    Policy Server R12.52 SP1 Build 499 on RedHat Linux
