Maybe you're getting the "standard in must be a tty" error note due to using "su" but because the db2 command is asking you to respond to a prompt?
Does the following work (e.g. running the env command instead of a db2
command) and not return the "standard in must be a tty" error ?
# STAF local PROCESS START SHELL "su - %u -c %C" COMMAND :3:env USERNAME
db2inst1 RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT WAIT
Does the following work? It adds /home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin,
/home/db2inst/sqllib/adm, and /home/db2inst1/sqllib/misc to the PATH
environment variable for this process and sets the DB2INSTANCE environment
variable to db2inst1 (these are things done by sourcing
/home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile) and specifies the entire command via the
COMMAND option (doesn't use the PARMS option)?.
# STAF local PROCESS START SHELL "su - %u -c %C" COMMAND
"/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2 list database directory" USERNAME db2inst1
ENV
"PATH=/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/adm:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/misc:{STAF/Env/PATH}"
ENV "DB2INSTANCE=db2inst1" RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT STDIN
/tmp/empty.txt WAIT
Note: /tmp/empty.txt is an empty file that you already created on the
machine where the process is being run)
If that doesn't work, perhaps /home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile needs to
be run (as it is automatically if you log on as the db2inst1 user) before
the db2 command can be run. I googled and found "Before you can issue DB2
commands on UNIX systems, you must first set up the environment by
sourcing the db2profile". Maybe try the following:
# STAF local PROCESS START SHELL "su - %u -c %C" COMMAND
"/home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile; /home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2 list
database directory" USERNAME db2inst1 RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT STDIN
/tmp/empty.txt WAIT
or
# STAF local PROCESS START SHELL "su - %u -c %C" COMMAND ".
/home/db2inst1/sqllib/db2profile; /home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2 list
database directory" USERNAME db2inst1 RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT STDIN
/tmp/empty.txt WAIT
Or maybe need to run db2start before the db2 command can be run. Maybe
try the following:
# STAF local PROCESS START SHELL "su - %u -c %C" COMMAND
"/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2start; /home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2 list
database directory" USERNAME db2inst1 ENV
"PATH=/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/adm:/home/db2inst1/sqllib/misc:{STAF/Env/PATH}"
ENV "DB2INSTANCE=db2inst1" RETURNSTDOUT STDERRTOSTDOUT STDIN
/tmp/empty.txt WAIT

Hi David,
I had tried this solution.
I had commented the "Defaults requiretty" line in
/etc/sudoers. But with that also it has not solved the problem
Also I tried creating /tmp/test.out and passed it to STDIN, but still the
problem persists:
[root@rhel5-db2-97 ~]# staf local process start shell "su - %u -c %C"
command "/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2" parms "list database directory"
username db2inst1 returnstdout returnstderr wait STDIN /tmp/test.out
Response
--------
{
Return Code: 1
Key : <None>
Files : [
{
Return Code: 0
Data :
}
{
Return Code: 0
Data : standard in must be a tty
}
]
}
Still searching for the solution.
Regards
Sanjeev

I found the following site that describes this error and some possible
solutions:
http://superuser.com/questions/119376/bash-su-script-giving-an-error-standard-in-must-be-a-tty
You could also try creating an empty file on the machine where the process
is executing (for example /tmp/stdin.txt) and then add the STDIN option to
your PROCESS START, and see if that makes any difference. For example:
staf local process start shell "su - db2inst1 -c %C" command
"/home/db2inst1/sqllib/bin/db2" parms "list database directory" username
db2inst1 returnstdout returnstderr wait STDIN /tmp/stdin.txt
Thanks,

Re: [staf-users] Starting a process with different user on Linux (RHEL4)
I tried without the "su -", but the command fails since the command has to
be run as db2inst1 and since the staf is running as root. So I have only
this workaround to run with su - option.

Have you tried the same without the "su - db2inst1 - ..." part?
I'm not using the internal staf process service, but I know that the STAX
process tag is using it and I'm not using the "su - username" in command
tag.
