If your data resources have already been defined in
the metadata repository, you can skip this step.
To enable the portlet
to leverage the SAS Information Delivery Portal's content and security
features, you must ensure that the appropriate metadata for each resource
has been added to the portal's SAS Metadata Repository. Resources
might include SAS Stored Processes, SAS Information Maps, SAS packages,
SAS publication channels, and SAS Reports. The SAS servers, spawners,
and logins associated with the resources must also be defined.
In addition, when you
add SAS publication channels, syndication channels, and servers,
you must enable your portlet to access the content by specifying the
appropriate permissions in your Web application server's policy file.
Note: Although the metadata for
portlet data resources must be added to the SAS Metadata Repository,
it is not necessary for these data resources to be surfaced in portlets.
