By default, the Job Manager runs as an unprivileged local system user called amijm. You can change this if you have a preferred user that you want the Job manager to run as.
The Job Manager user must have read/write access to the /var/run/Autodesk/ami2015jm directory to record its process ID.
Use the supplied
/opt/Autodesk/moldflow/ami2015/sbin/reconfigure shell script to change the Job Manager user. The syntax is:
/opt/Autodesk/moldflow/ami2015/sbin/reconfigure MFSYN_JMUSER=[username]
where
[username] is the user that will run the Job Manager (it may be root). Do not type the brackets.
Note: Spacing is important; there must be no spaces around the = sign.
Example: You already have a user 'jobuser' that you want the Job Manager to run as.
# chown jobuser /var/run/Autodesk/ami2015jm
# /opt/Autodesk/moldflow/ami2015/sbin/reconfigure MFSYN_JMUSER=jobuser
Fastpath: You can edit the file /etc/opt/Autodesk/ami2015 by hand instead of using the reconfigure shell script. The format is the same as the argument to the script.
Caution: If you change the Job Manager daemon user but re-use the Job Manager temporary directory, you may need to manually remove any files in that directory owned by the old user.
