There are two sets of
permissions involved with the in-database software.
The first set of permissions
is needed by the person who publishes the
SAS_COMPILEUDF and
SAS_DELETEUDF functions and creates the
SASUDF_COMPILER_PATH and
SASUDF_DB2PATH global variables.
These permissions must
be granted before the
%INDB2_PUBLISH_COMPILEUDF and
%INDB2_PUBLISH_DELETEUDF macros are run. Without these permissions, running
these macros fails.
The following table
summarizes the permissions that are needed by the person who publishes
the functions and creates the global variables.
|
Authority Required to
Grant Permission
|
|
CREATEIN permission
for the SASLIB schema in which the SAS_COMPILEUDF and SAS_DELETEUDF functions are published and the SASUDF_COMPILER_PATH and SASUDF_DB2PATH global variables are defined
|
System Administrator
or Database Administrator
Note: If you have SYSADM or DBADM
authority or are the DB2 instance owner, then you have these permissions.
Otherwise, contact your database administrator to obtain these permissions.
|
GRANT CREATEIN ON SCHEMA SASLIB
TO compiledeletepublisheruserid
|
CREATE_EXTERNAL_ROUTINE permission to the database in which the SAS_COMPILEUDF and SAS_DELETEUDF functions are published
|
GRANT CREATE_EXTERNAL_ROUTINE ON
DATABASE TO
compiledeletepublisheruserid
|
The second set of permissions
is needed by the person who publishes the format or scoring model
functions. The person who publishes the format or scoring model functions
is not necessarily the same person who publishes the
SAS_COMPILEUDF and
SAS_DELETEUDF functions and creates the
SASUDF_COMPILER_PATH and
SASUDF_DB2PATH global variables. These permissions are most likely needed by the
format publishing or scoring model developer. Without these permissions,
the publishing of the format or scoring model functions fails.
Note: Permissions must be granted
for every format or scoring model publisher and for each database
that the format or scoring model publishing uses. Therefore, you might
need to grant these permissions multiple times.
After the DB2 permissions
have been set appropriately, the format or scoring publishing macro
should be called to register the formats or scoring model functions.
The following table
summarizes the permissions that are needed by the person who publishes
the format or scoring model functions.
|
Authority Required to
Grant Permission
|
|
EXECUTE permission for
functions that have been published.
This enables the person
who publishes the formats or scoring model functions to execute the SAS_COMPILEUDF and SAS_DELETEUDF functions.
|
System Administrator
or Database Administrator
Note: If you have SYSADM or DBADM
authority, then you have these permissions. Otherwise, contact your
database administrator to obtain these permissions.
|
GRANT EXECUTE ON FUNCTION
SASLIB.* TO
scoringorfmtpublisherid
|
CREATE_EXTERNAL_ROUTINE permission to the database to create format or scoring
model functions
|
GRANT CREATE_EXTERNAL_ROUTINE ON
DATABASE TO
scoringorfmtpublisherid
|
CREATE_NOT_FENCED_ROUTINE permission to create format or scoring model functions
that are not fenced
|
GRANT CREATE_NOT_FENCED_ROUTINE
ON DATABASE TO
scoringorfmtpublisherid
|
CREATEIN permission
for the schema in which the format or scoring model functions are
published if the default schema (SASLIB) is not used
|
GRANT CREATEIN ON SCHEMA
scoringschema TO
scoringorfmtpublisherid
|
READ permission to read
the SASUDF_COMPILER_PATH
and SASUDF_DB2PATH global
variables
Note: The person who ran the %INDB2_PUBLISH_COMPILEUDF macro
has these READ permissions and does not need to grant them to himself
or herself again.
|
Person who ran the %INDB2_PUBLISH_COMPILEUDF macro
Note: For security reasons, only
the user who created these variables has the permission to grant READ
permission to other users. This is true even for the user with administrator
permissions such as the DB2 instance owner.
|
GRANT READ ON VARIABLE
SASLIB.SASUDF_DB2PATH TO
scoringorfmtpublisherid
GRANT READ ON VARIABLE
SASLIB.SASUDF_COMPILER_PATH
TO scoringorfmtpublisherid
|
Note: If you plan to use SAS Model
Manager with the SAS Scoring Accelerator for in-database scoring,
additional permissions are required.
