Queries failed with error "Permission denied for relation XXX" are missed from dc_request_issued
Hi,
On v 12.0.3, queries that failed with error "Permission denied for relation XXX" are missed from dc_request_issued.
That is a problem for audit - I would like to see SQL text in dc_requests_issued. For same reason failed logins are saved in login_failures.
Problem is easy to reproduce. Create table, do not give privileges on it to some user, and run select from this table by this user. Then, try to find this select in dc_requests_issued.
Vertica log still have this select, it is being logged properly there, together with error text.
Thank you

Big thanks Sruthi!
@Sergey_Cherepan_1 : since it is erroring out with permission denied, it is not getting logged in dc_requests_issued. Do you want it to be added to dc table?
That is correct, I want to see it added to dc_requests_issued.
Otherwise user activity is leaving no traces.
thank you for confirming. may be it will be added to a new dc table in future.
