Configuring the ESRI Map Component

Create an ESRI ArcGIS Server Definition

To create an ESRI ArcGIS server definition, follow these steps:

  1. Log on to SAS Management Console as someone who has the Server Manager capability (for example, sasadm@saspw).

  2. On the Plug-ins tab, right-click Server Manager and select Actions [arrow] New Server.

  3. In the New Server Wizard, under Resource Templates [arrow] Servers [arrow] Content Servers, select ESRI Map Server. Click Next.

  4. Enter a name for the server and click Next.

  5. Enter software version information and click Next.

  6. Next to the Authentication Domain drop-down list, click New and create a new authentication domain (for example, ESRIauth). Assign the server to the new authentication domain.

    Note:   You can enable users to access the ArcGIS Server under their own accounts if that server accepts the same credentials that users supply when they log on. To do this, assign the server to the DefaultAuth authentication domain and add each user's host account to the Windows ESRI group (agusers). Because this approach relies on reuse of cached credentials, it is not compatible with Web authentication.  [cautionend]

  7. Enter the host name for the machine where the ArcGIS server is running. Click Next.

  8. Click Finish.
