@nicolemarieball I found this blog very interesting, is this an another option for make Viya reports available on other website? Until now I have heard about SAS Report Package.   ... View more

thank you very much Wilbram for your answer.  As advised I have started SAS Helpdesk case as the way of working with EG has changed ( one supposed to work without metadata server;  use some kind of credentials when logging directly on Workspace Server). I have asked it here as you provided very good guide how to make connection with Viya server and this part of SAS9.4 was not covered, however it has changed as well. Greetings from Holland and keep on making webinars like that! ... View more

@Wilbram-SAS hello Wibram, we would like to add as well a SAS 9.4 server. We have seen that in order to work with more than one server, so SAS Viya server and SAS 9.4 server, one should not select any profile. We did not find a way how to add SAS 9.4 server, the documentation says that you have to connect directly to workspace server of SAs 9.4. Can you give an example how to configure that?, regards Karolina T ... View more

@RPoumarede thank you very much for this valuable information and indeed it is a great work of SAS R&D. We have checked inside our organization and know that for the next Kubernetes update to version 1.30 we should be fine. Pls place an update when there is a solution in place for this issue. ...

@JanStienstra  according to SAS documentation the sitedefault.yaml file, is used primarily for the bulk loading of configuration values. After the initial deployment, the sitedefault.yaml file cannot be used to modify an existing value and to deploy the software again. The sitedefault.yaml file can be used only to set new property values that have not already been set. The question is, is the sitedefault.yaml used only at initial deployment or also later when new values have been added? ... View more

I am not sure if I will be able to attend this workshop as I am in another time zone, probably I will watch it later. Could you please provide answer to a question about using the full functionality of SWO in user interface. From my research I thought you can kill and restart jobs only when using batch server via CLI. We prefer however to schedule jobs through user interface, it has more features than batch context in CLI. Has something changed here about killing and restarting jobs. We are considering to use in the future Airflow. Pls advise about the possibilities to use the full functionality of SWO. regards Karolina ... View more

Yes, we are missing this feature as well. Is this explanation also applying to Viya 4 on kubernetes? ... View more

@BrunoMueller thank you very much for this post, we have been looking for this option as there are always users who start to use the SAS Viya platform before it is ready after the update. Is there also a way to adjust the message displayed to users to a customized one when putting Viya into offline mode? regards Karolina T ... View more

hello Wilbram, valid point, in the Viya connection you have only compute server to your disposal and through that cas server. I have tried your code, it works fine, I have only shortened the libref to 8 signs. I will not use code caslib _all_ assign anymore. Thank you ... View more

Thank you for useful command to see the node labels and suggestion to keep all the workload for compute server in one place! We will consider to try it out in our cluster. Looking forward to next blogs about how many compute nodes do you need or finding answer to questions like: do you need another stateless node or another compute node if there is significant programming workload, however based on past experience there is also a need for stateless/stateful node with more CPU than for compute node. One thing I was missing in the blog is, where can you find the default deployment for stateful/stateless nodes except of site.yaml , with the nodes affinity and tolerations requirements? ...
