Ownership of UNIX objects created with datastage
Posted: Wed Sep 20, 2006 12:12 pm
Hi All,
I am requested to set-up datastage in such a way that each of our developers logs-in to the datastage clients with their individual unix log-in account, but that all unix objects created/modified by them (or the executed jobs/routines) should be owned by user dsadm.
The objective is to eliminate the usage of shared unix accounts for logging into a client, but that when a individual developer's unix account is later deleted (because that developer has left the project) no objects are unexpectedly deleted as a result. The proposed solution is to make dsadm the owner, so that when the developer's account is deleted no datastage objects are owned by it.
I've had a trawl with Search but am not able to find any topics that address my request.
Is it possible to set-up datastage this way, or is that a silly question?
thanks,
katz
