Login Policy Option Changes

There are changes to some login policy options in SAP Sybase IQ 16.0.

Option Description
AUTO_UNLOCK_TIME New option. The time period after which locked accounts not granted the MANAGE ANY USER system privilege are automatically unlocked. This option can be defined in any login policy, including the root login policy.
ROOT_AUTO_UNLOCK_TIME New option. The time period after which locked accounts granted the MANAGE ANY USER system privilege are automatically unlocked. This option can be defined in the root login policy only.
CHANGE_PASSWORD_DUAL_CONTROL New option. Requires input from two users, each granted the CHANGE PASSWORD system privilege, to change the password of another user.
LDAP_PRIMARY_SERVER New option. Specifies the name of the primary LDAP server. 
LDAP_SECONDARY_SERVER New option. Specifies the name of the secondary LDAP server. 
LDAP_AUTO_FAILBACK_PERIOD New option. Specifies the time period, in minutes, after which automatic failback to the primary server is attempted.
LDAP_FAILOVER_TO_STD New option. Permits authentication with standard authentication when authentication with the LDAP  server fails due to system resources, network outage, connection timeouts, or similar system failures.  However, it does not permit an actual authentication failure returned from an LDAP server to fail over to standard authentication.
LDAP_REFRESH_DN New option. Updates the ldap_refresh_dn value in the ISYSLOGINPOLICYOPTION system table with the current time, stored in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Each time a user authenticates with LDAP, if the value of the option ldap_refresh_dn in ISYSLOGINPOLICYOPTION is more recent than the user_dn value in ISYSUSER, a search for a new user DN occurs. The user_dn value is then updated with the new user DN and the user_dn_changed_at value is again updated to the current time.
