Kill Linux process when stop a execution job from SAS STUDIO

[_zeta_]

¡Hi mates!

Is possible to control from SAS Studio when the user cancel or stop a node in SAS Studio? we want to kill a few Linux process when it occurs!

Thank you very much for your comments.

If you want to do this from within SAS, XCMD has to be enabled.

Note that non-root users can only kill processes they own; if you need to kill other processes, you need superuser (root) privileges.

I think your life will be much easier doing this on the backend with a shell script - maybe one that monitors the nodes assigned to each user?  Unless the user is stopping nodes from within a SAS program (as opposed to through the GUI) using x / %sysexec, I'm not sure how the process you're talking about would be kicked off by SAS.
