Sun Cluster 3.1 Data Services 10/03 Release Notes

The su Command Resets the Project Identifier (4868654)

Some data services run the su command to set the user identifier (ID) to a specific user. For the Solaris 9 operating environment, the su command resets the project identifier to default. This behavior overrides the setting of the project identifier by the RG_project_name system property or the Resource_project_name system property.

To ensure that the appropriate project name is used at all times, set the project name in the environment file of the user. One method to set the project name in the user's environment file is to add the following line to the .cshrc file of the user:

/usr/bin/newtask -p project-name -c $$

project-name is the project name that is to be used.
