Fix worked but not before the workaround mentioned at the bottom of the link was also executed.

Thanks for replying. The client side is at the base of 8.7.0.0 and so is the server.

[dsadm@vrptisdshcl01 bin]$ ./uv -admin -version
DataStage 8.7.0.0

Hello Ray,

Thanks for replying. Yes, I logged in as isadmin, the user that is created during installation.

This user has admin rights and at the OS level is mapped to root.
