world-write was no longer required. |

* RECOMMENDATION: *
* If sqllib/cfg/db2sprf exists, remove world write *
* permissionmanually.If sqllib/cfg/db2sprf does not exist, *
* apply DB2 v9.7 FP2 orlater. No further action is required. *

| Solution |
The code which creates this file has been fixed in DB2 v9.7 FP2.
However, applying the fixpack will not change the permissions
if the file already exists. If the file already exists,
permission may be removed manually by the customer, for
example by typing at the unix command line:
chmod o-w db2sprf |
