Is there a way to handle this type of case more gracefully? ... View more

Hello I was looking at the deployment process by manual deployment of SAS Viya4 on open shift cluster.  Taking the procedure in the SAS Viya Deployment subscription in respect of install on OpenShift as the basis, I don't see anything on provisioning persistent volume. The raises a question does install on OpenShift automatically provisions the persistent volume   OR do we need to add references to the transformer section in the kustomization.yaml file? I could not find much in the SAS Viya Platform: Deployment Guide  and also at SAS Help Center: Sizing Recommendations. Wondering if somebody can guide on this and point to the appropriate resources. Thanks. ... View more

Hello I am trying to understand and learn the process of deploying SAS Viya4 on OpenShift In premises on VMWare platform. I have gone through the documentation at   https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/itopscdc/v_067/dplyml0phy0dkr/titlepage.htm?fromDefault=   (My understanding is that this  an excellent reference for the learned experts) and the two Red Hat blogs https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/sas-viya-on-red-hat-openshift-part-1-reference-architecture-and-deployment-considerations  https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/sas-viya-on-red-hat-openshift-part-2-security-and-storage-considerations .  I was looking at something that is a more like 9.4 documentation for example https://go.documentation.sas.com/doc/en/bicdc/9.4/biig/n05001intelplatform00install.htm . What I am interested is a single unified document   that any working SAS Admin with a fundamental knowledge of Unix, Cloud and SAS should be able to get started in a reasonable amount of time.  Articles dealing with a particular topic in a specific environment will be of great help once the install is complete.  I would appreciate if somebody can help.   ...
