ownership of /saswork table if alunched by shared account

[singhaisurbhi02]

HI there, I have one question, like if program ran by shared identities (eg.sassrv) and there is table in /saswork location which is huge ,I want to know the ownership of the file. How can get this detail in case of sas 94.

Thanks,

SAS WORK and all its content is session specific and owned by the user that created the session.

Thanks Patrick,
What would be the case in term of pooled workspace server , as it uses shared identity. like someone is created big table how would I be able to identify the user in that case, if it other location than SASwork.

To the operating system, the owner of such a file will be the same as the owner of the process which creates the file. Which means that all files created by a Pooled Workspace Server will belong to sassrv.

If you need to know which of your users creates large files in WORK, then simply do not let them use a pooled server from Enterprise Guide or SAS Studio.
