@LinusH mentioned the %mdu* macros. This is likely going to be the simplest method. Run %mduextr to extract the current metadata users and groups into canonical tables. Make your modifications to the groups you want in those tables. Then load it back in. 3. ... View more

Hi Vishal, welcome to the SAS communities. I'm not sure from your question if you are asking how to setup your AWS S3 bucket or what you need to do in SAS to fetch/push data to/from AWS. Can you clarify what you are trying to do? ... View more

A one off major fault where a page of memory is retrieved from disk is quite common. Consider that when the linker loads a library unless you call a function in that library the libraries functions stored on disk are never loaded into memory. If you eventually invoke a rarely used function you'll incur a major page fault because the function needs to be into memory from disk when its execute.    The alert in SAS Environment Manager is there to detect situations where your system is under memory pressure and demand for pages of memory is seeing lots of pages being paged in and out since the demand for pages exceeds the amount of memory available in the system.    If you are only seeing a handful of major faults this is not something to be concerned about. If your system begins to have major faults occurring constantly for a service like the SAS Object Spawner then this is something to become concerned with and investigate further. The SAS Object Spawner once its warmed up and has been running a while should very infrequently encounter major page faults so seeing it major fault often once its up is an indication of an issue. ...

This requirement comes from the elssrv binary being setuid. It requires root permissions to launch processes as the correct user. If you just wanted to execute a SAS program you don't need root. You can create a docker image in a similar way to something like the the official python container where you'd take this container as a base the COPY in your program to form a new container you run with an updated entrypoint that executes SAS with the program as an argument. What kind of SAS workload are you trying to deploy into OpenShift? ... View more

It might work. I don't recommend it though. You will only receive support from SAS for SAS\ACCESS Interface to Hadoop when you are using a supported distribution. https://support.sas.com/en/documentation/third-party-software-reference/9-4/support-for-hadoop.html ... View more

I've found JSON a little simpler to follow. Mostly because constructs like lists use things I expect from programming languages I've used in the past. Another things is I've always had difficulty managing the mix up of tabs and space in Python and I'm sure YAML will have similar issues when the number of documents and number of people working with them rises. Suppose its one of those things where personal preference comes into it a lot, probably entirely. They both appear to be perfectly good at serialising data structures with very little overhead. ...
