Use this page to view or change the process execution settings for a server process.
A server process applies to either an application server, a node agent or a deployment manager.
If you are running on IBM® i
or a distributed operating systems, to view this administrative console
page for an application server, click server_name. Then, in the Server
Infrastructure section, click .
If you are running on z/OS®,
to view this administrative console page for an application server,
click server_name.
Then, in the Server Infrastructure section, click ,
click either Servant, Control or Adjunct, and
then click .
To view this
administrative console page for a node agent, click nodeagent_name. Then, in the Server
Infrastructure section, click .
To view this administrative
console page for a node agent, click nodeagent_name.
Then, under Server Infrastructure, click .
To view this
administrative console page for a deployment manager, click . Then, in the Server Infrastructure section, click .
To view this administrative
console page for a deployment manager, click .
Then, in the Server Infrastructure section, click ,
click either Servant, Control or Adjunct, and
then click .
Specifies the operating system priority for the process. The administrative process that launches the server must have root operating system authority in order to honor this setting.

Specifies the user mask under which the process runs (the file-mode permission mask).
The deployment manager and application servers must run with the stated UMASK default value (007 for z/OSz/OS
and 022 for UNIX
in order to support system management
functions. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not change the
default value of this setting for the deployment manager or the controller.

Specifies the user that the process runs as. This user ID must be defined to the security system.
This field does not apply if you are running on
a z/OS operating system. z/OS users must use RACF to associate a user
to an address space. A process display shows the RACF associated user
as the running user.
This field is ignored if you are running Microsoft Windows operating
systems because Windows user accounts are not managed by the Application
Server.

For the IBM i operating system, additional
steps are required to run as a userid other than QEJBSVR. For more
information, see the Security section of the WebSphere® Application
Server for iSeries® online documentation. Go to http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/websphere/wsappserver/index.html and
navigate to the WebSphere Application Server for iSeries Security
information.
Specifies the group that the process is a member of and runs as.
This field does not apply if you are running on
a z/OS operating system. z/OS users must use RACF to associate a group
to an address space. A process display shows the RACF associated group
as the running user.
If the runAsGroup value is specified, then that value is added to the secondary group list. If the runAsGroup value specified is not the runAsUser's primary group, the primary group will only be included in the secondary group list if the user is defined as part of the group list in the group database, typically /etc/group.
This field is ignored.

Specifies a specific process group for the process. A process group is a mechanism that the operating system uses to logically associate multiple processes and operate on them as a single unit. Usually, the operating system uses this mechanism for signal distribution.
This field does not apply if you are running on
a z/OS operating system. z/OS users must use RACF to associate a process
group to an address space. A process display shows the RACF associated
process group as the running user.
Specific operating systems might allow other operations to be performed on a process group. Refer to your operating system documentation for more information on the operations that can be performed on a process group.
This field is ignored.
