Fix Recommendation

Alter host system permissions to the <DIAGNOSTIC_DEST>/diag directory to the Oracle process and software owner accounts, DBAs, SAs (if required) and developers or other users that may specifically require access for debugging or other purposes.

Authorize and document user access requirements to the directory outside of the Oracle, DBA and SA account list.
