Hi,
I'm not sure I understand the question correctly. As far as I know any user can start glance.

Regards,

Re: how to use glance with non-root users?

At the command prompt, type glance

If not on the path...
/opt/perf/bin/glance

It is however possible that the root user changed the permissions on the file to keep people from using system resources running it.

ll /opt/perf/bin/glance

If others can't execute then you need to negotiate with the Sysadmin or change the permissions.

chmod a+x /opt/perf/bin/glance

That should be it for a normal user who isn't running restricted shell.

If you are running X Windows for that user, the command is gpm in a terminal window.

Hope this helps.

Any normal user can use glance.

$/opt/perf/bin/glance

You should be able to run glance as a normal user. By default the glance installation gives the executable /opt/perf/bin/glance this permission ..
