Very clear, concise and practical, thanks @XavierBizoux  . Maybe the Viya CLI job plugin could also be added to the scope of your comparison, or furthermore explained alongside its batch plugins counterpart to clarify which purpose they serve ? ... View more

@Beate_Edu Extremely interesting, thanks for sharing this event and the overall initiative ! I would love to see it the same approach embraced also by SAS France for french-speaking SAS specialists, this is sorely missed. ... View more

Extremely useful, thanks a lot for sharing @jarno . In particular, the benchmark table by format X compression method is priceless. 🙂 Wanted for a long time to have such figures. How many obs and variables (CHAR, NUM) did the 1Gb reference table have ?  ... View more

I have no experience pulling directly from cr.sas.com apart from one Docker image or two using docker cli. Unless your datacenter hosting OCP cluster is located near cr.sas.com, this is not a recommended practice and you should use a mirror registry instead. Viya docker images for a deployment might represent 30-50Gb globally, and some images are individually huge (3-8 Gb). Therefore, performance would suffer each time the kubelet needs refreshing the image, this would add extra even noticeable delays for your endusers. Set up a registry and populate it using mirror manager. There are even mirror registries provided with OCP.   I suspect you encounter some binding/authentication issue with cr.sas.com. Try pulling the SAS OQ Docker image : (https://documentation.sas.com/doc/en/sasadmincdc/v_053/oq/n1preqegzpz85rn1c7a6j96ewr9f.htm) If you succeed, then try pulling one image or two from your deployment. If it works then you might try creating a manual image pull secret in your Viya Namespace : see https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.14/openshift_images/managing_images/using-image-pull-secrets.html and configure it with the login/pwd used previously. ...

Thanks to a wonderful Learning Guide 😉 - SAS Viya Operations Course Notes, namely, I discovered its jq one-liner equivalent :   jq -R -r '. as $line | try (fromjson|"\(.level | ascii_upcase) \(.timeStamp) [\(.source)] \(.properties.sessionUser )\(.message)" ) catch $line | sub("null";"")'   Better defined as a function in .bashrc for further reuse:   fklog(){ jq -R -r '. as $line | try (fromjson|"\(.level | ascii_upcase) \(.timeStamp) [\(.source)] \(.properties.sessionUser )\(.message)" ) catch $line | sub("null";"")' } ...

Hi @GerryNelson ,   Thanks for sharing this article. I wasn't able to download the 'klog' filtering tool or even to locate the executable.  I searched the GitHub page of Technical Support, for instance, but to no avail.   - could you, please, provide a download link ?   Ronan   ... View more
