How to list all meta users

D4RkM4N — Mon, 22 Feb 2021 16:00:58 GMT

Hi all,

Currently in the company all the processes are executed under the user sassrv, but I want to know the metauser of each PID in order to really know which user is executing it, is this possible?

Is there any code that I can run as an administrator to know this information?

Thanks

The -METAUSER option would be in the command line submitted by the Object Spawner, so you could see this with ps -ef on Linux:

[sas@trcv090 ~]$ ps -ef | grep sasdemo
sassrv 20574 20572 1 11:16 ? 00:00:00 /sas94/software/compute/SASFoundation/9.4/sasexe/sas -memsize 0 -cpucount ACTUAL -noterminal -netencryptalgorithm SASProprietary -metaserver trcv003.trc.sas.com -metaport 8561 -metarepository Foundation -locale en_US -objectserver -objectserverparms delayconn sph=trcv090.trc.sas.com protocol=bridge spawned spp=34197 cid=39 pb classfactory=440196D4-90F0-11D0-9F41-00A024BB830C server=OMSOBJ:SERVERCOMPONENT/A5RWD7FM.AZ00000C cel=credentials lb recon grid -METAUSER sasdemo@!*(generatedpassworddomain)*! -METAPASS C29f2C64d5748B26b7FF7d384D283650

Hi,

Thanks for your help, but i try this and not working.

I do not know if the console is not showing me all the complete lines and for that reason I do not see the metauser.

Another option would be to search for the process ID in the Object Spawner logs:
[sas@trcv090 Logs]$ grep 'Created ' ObjectSpawner_2021-02-22_trcv090_23168.log
2021-02-22T12:53:19,400 INFO [00000224] :sasdemo - Created process 23257 using credentials sassrv for user sasdemo (child id 0).
