7.1.1.3 Account Code Derivation for Linux Exit (LNXACRT)

This section explains how to code an account code exit for
the files in the Linux (LNX) information area.

This exit routine is a user-written routine. It is similar to
the VMCACRT routine described in the previous section and is
invoked for each Linux process activity input record
processed.  This SAS routine builds the account code data
elements defined in the previous section.  For example, if
the VMCACCT member in sharedprefix.MICS.PARMS defines four
account code levels, this user routine has the responsibility
of building the data value of those four fields for each
record processed.

The user account code routine is written in SAS code.  The
testing and accuracy of the process is the responsibility of
the user.  However, a sample Account Code Exit Routine is
provided to help verify the accuracy of the user
modifications to the routine.  The worksheet for structuring
the CP Account Code Exit Routine is shown in Figure 7-2.

Each of the data elements contained in the Linux Process
Activity File (LNXLXP) is available for use by the Account
Code Exit LNXACRT Routine.  See the appropriate section in
Chapter 5 for a list of the elements that are available for
use.

Data elements frequently used to determine account code
values are:

    LNXLUSNM - Linux Logon User Name
    LNXLGPNM - Linux Logon Group Name
