SAS/Warehouse Administrator Software

LDAP Security Interface Enhancements

The LDAP security interface, which was experimental in Release 8.1 but is fully supported in Release 8.2, enables you to define a security hierarchy for the data stores in a Data Warehouse. This hierarchy can be used to control access to warehouse data stores in much the same way that an operating system uses access control lists (ACLs) to control access to files. New features in this release include:

the ability to control access to OLAP Groups, OLAP Tables, and OLAP MDDBs
the ability to control access to a SAS/EIS metabase that contains metadata that was exported from SAS/Warehouse Administrator. This enables LDAP applications to access warehouse data through SAS/EIS.
