&SYS.USER.ID The &SYS.USER.ID system variable contains the user ID of the user currently
executing the procedure. The value returned is from one through eight characters.
NCL procedures execute in the NCL processing region of a NonStop NET/MASTER
MS user, represented by a user ID. The user ID may be a real user or an internal user
ID that supports one of the system level processing regions.
&SYS.USER.ID
Considerations
The internal user IDs within a NonStop NET/MASTER MS system are formed
from the system's domain ID and a suffix that represents the particular internal
environment that they support. Typical internal user IDs are those that support
the various background environments, such as the background logger.
The SHOW USERS command displays a list of the active user IDs operating in an
NonStop NET/MASTER MS system. These user IDs always appear first in the
SHOW USERS display.
See also &SYS.TERM.TYPE and &SYS.TERM.NAME. These give the type of
terminal and the logical name, respectively, of the terminal with which the user
has logged on.
Example
The following example shows how you might use this system variable:
SAY "Your user ID is " &SYS.USER.ID "."
