RE: Jobs calling cmds that reference IFS objects fail if a homedirectory exists for that user - how does one resolve this

Fully qualify the IFS object. If BRC is a directory under the root, then
/BRC/INDEM........ etc

Subject: Jobs calling cmds that reference IFS objects fail if a

homedirectory

exists for that user - how does one resolve this

We have a process that has been running fine for years under user A,

no

home directory exist for user A.

We changed the job to run under user CPACOPER, which has a home
directory.
Home directory . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : /home/CPACOPER

The job now fails where ever there is a cmd that is referencing an IFS

object.

Initially I thought it was an authority issue, but we think the

existence of the

home directory causes the issue.
How does one resolve this?
