Yes we're in the process of rolling out sudo to our IT staff and
removing root access but we have not been able to get MASTER OFF to
work.

I was always led to believe that MASTER OFF is a cleaner way to drop
Universe sessions rather than killing the sessions at unix level.

Not sure about doing it from Universe as it's the unix permissions which
come into effect.

You could use the sudo utility and then allow them to kill the process
from Unix or a universe shell executing a unix command.

Sudo (superuser do) allows a system administrator to give certain users
(or groups of users) the ability to run some (or all) commands as root
while logging all commands and arguments. Sudo operates on a per-command
basis, it is not a replacement for the shell.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if there is a way to allow non root access users to
access the universe MASTER OFF command?

We are on version 9.6.1.6 of Universe.

Thanks
