OD 551 SP2 iwodnonroot

jmd

I am using OD 551 SP2 on AIX box and want to try running OD as non-root user (say owner=odadm group=odgrp)
I followed the instructions from the SP2 release note and the execution was OK but when I tried to stop the daemon it said "cat: 0652-050 Cannot open /etc/defaultiwodhome".
So I took a look at the /etc directory and could see that the permissions on the defaultiwodhome were not modified !
What am I supposed to do ? Can I manually modify the permissions ? Are there any other files which permissions need to be modified ?
What happened with the files that was backed up during SP2 installation ?

what are the permissions you are seeing? they should at least have read-only perms.

jmd

permissions are the following
rw- --- --- root system

it should be readable.
make the perms 644 instead.

it works fine but I also had to do the following :
-> as root stop the daemon
-> set the permissions of the $od-home/jre/bin/libiwdeploy.so file to 775
Then I was able to start the daemon as odadm (non-root user)

So the entire procedure is :
1 - as root make the path to the $od-home directory reachable for the desired non-root user
2 - as root stop the daemon
3 - as root run $od-home/bin/iwnonroot
3 - as root set permission of /etc/defaultiwodhome to 644
4 - as root set permissions of $od-home/jre/bin/libiwdeploy.so to 775
5 - as the desired non-root user start the daemon
