No, methyl. There are different teams from different IT service vendors who work for our client. My company is one of them. My team is responsible for administering the server from OS stand point. If there's any issue with storage, we need to consult with SAN people. If problem is with an application, we need to work with application people. If there's a network issue, we get in touch with network team. Should it be a problem with hardware, we need to contact datacenter admins who have physical access to the server.
For this situation, I was not the authorized person to make any changes to the application.

Name
nice - set program priority
Syntax
int nice(incr)
int incr;
Description
The scheduling priority of the process is augmented by incr. Positive priorities get less service than normal. Priority 10 is recommended
to users who wish to execute long-running programs without flack from the administration.
Negative increments are ignored except on behalf of the super-user. The priority is limited to the range -20 (most urgent) to 20 (least).
The priority of a process is passed to a child process by For a privileged process to return to normal priority from an unknown state,
should be called successively with arguments -40 (goes to priority -20 because of truncation), 20 (to get to 0), then 0 (to maintain com-
patibility with previous versions of this call).
Environment
In any mode, nice returns -1 and sets on an error. On success, the return value depends on the mode in which your program was compiled.
In POSIX or System V mode, it is the new priority; otherwise, it is zero. Note that, in POSIX and System V mode, -1 can indicate either
success or failure; must be used to determine which.
