Need HCL Connections to support raditional database(such as DB2) as a federated repository

In Company structure, User-Group information are stored in a rational database(DB2) rather than LDAP.

On WebSphere Application Server, it is supported to use a rational database(such as DB2) as a lookaside federated repository.

When setting up the rational database as a lookaside federated repository on HCL Portal, groups can be loaded on Portal.

However, when setting up the rational database as a lookaside federated repository on HCL Connections, if adding a group as member or sharing a file to a group, group info can't be loaded.
