SAS Viya - Administration issues

nicocba — Fri, 15 Jun 2018 18:33:11 GMT

Hi,

I'm starting to configure a SAS Viya environment, first time using it, and have encountered the following errorors:

1. Before connecting to the corporate AD (Active Directory) we connected to a local LDAP server to test the environment, i've created a Oracle Library with one of those users. Now we connected to the corporate AD and i've found that the test user is the only user with full control over that library.

Is there any way i can take ownership of that library with another admin or sasboot user?

2. I've found out that any user on the AD is able to log and use SAS VIya,I know is the default behaviour but i'm not very keen on allowing any user (very large company) to access the application. We want to limit the login permissions to some groups on AD, by assinging those AD groups membership of the custom groups in SAS

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english,

Nicolas

For #2

https://go.documentation.sas.com/?cdcId=calcdc&cdcVersion=3.3&docsetId=calconfig&docsetTarget=n08000sasconfiguration0admin.htm&locale=en#n08049sasconfiguration0admin

You can specify a custom objectFilter

For #1, see if you can change them with https://go.documentation.sas.com/?cdcId=calcdc&cdcVersion=3.3&docsetId=caldatamgmtcas&docsetTarget=n06btniqijz8udn1vtld6ea8lts2.htm&locale=en#p01ovp1zhzb6ejn1qpsms4m3e9fp

I can't edit permissions for the library, I'm thinking that maybe I can create a rule for SAS Administrators to get full access to data

I've found a solution for #1, i'll share it here for future reference

Log in as a SAS Administrator, go to Data -> Servers -> right click on cas server and select "Assume the superuser rol".

You'll see a message on top saying that you're superuser and you'll have control over all the system.

I'm still working on #2 with SAS Support
