Misi, Would you mind one more question? I ran the command with -maxlength 254 and records in CTM:People Permission Groups and User table appear to be successfully changed. There was an error on merging records on the CTM:People form which reads:
ars_MergeEntry(CTM:People, PPL000000000047): [ERROR] The value(s) for this entry violate a unique index that has been defined for this form (CTM:People Permission Groups entry:PPG000000033497 fields: 179 4 1000000080 1000001579 ) (ARERR #382) ChangedEntry: Form=CTM:People, Id=PPL000000000023, #Fields=1 Form CTM:People, 0 of 3406 entries changed, time 0:01:55 Is this to be expected? If I ran this on prod would I have bad data? Sorry to be so thick - I'm very new to Remedy ARS and no training. Perhaps I should do an export with the index field, change the data and import.
