PRINCIPAL column in ACT_SESSION table is too short

Error in logs indicating data truncation on PRINCIPAL column in ACT_SESSION table.



ERROR 000000000000 GLOBAL_SCOPE DmiVisEventWarehouseQueue.Worker.executeStatementsAsExecutor had a SQL exception from pstmnt: PreparedStatementHelper: SQL: UPDATE ACT_SESSION SET SECURE_MODE = ? , PRINCIPAL = ? WHERE SESSION_ID = ? Values: [SSH, somelongusername@longdomain-name.com, SFTP_ClientAdapter_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]



The column size is only 36 characters and needs to be increased to accommodate longer account login/usernames.

What is your industry? Financial Markets
How will this idea be used?

Usernames longer than 36 characters are generating SQL exceptions in the logs. Making the column larger will reduce the number of errors being logged by the system.

    Same issue with the new AWSS3Client adapter that is using the S3 bucket name to fill out PRINCIPAL column. S3 bucket name can be up to 63 chars long.
