Beginning with SAS® 9.2, the Object Spawner process creates, upon invocation, a small utility file in the /tmp directory. If this utility file needs to be redirected to an alternate directory, you must override the default location by modifying the ObjectSpawner.sh script file. This script file is typically located in /<Configuration-Directory>/Lev1/ObjectSpawner.

Edit ObjectSpawner.sh file and locate the following section of the script:

   CONFIGDIR=$LEVEL_ROOT/ObjectSpawner
   LOGSDIR=/saswork/CFGTEST/Lev1/Logs
   SASENV=$SASROOT/bin/sasenv
   OMRCFG=$LEVEL_ROOT/ObjectSpawner/metadataConfig.xml
   SPWNNAME="Object Spawner - server.unx.sas.com"
   SERVERUSER=sas
   CMD_OPTIONS=" -dnsMatch server.unx.sas.com"
   COMMAND="$SASROOT/utilities/bin/objspawn"
   SCRIPT=`basename $0`

Add the following export command, containing the path to the new directory, to the bottom of this section:

   export TKOPT_ENV_UTILLOC=/<override_directory_path>

NOTE: You must restart the Object Spawner in order for the modification to take effect.
