This topic provides
guidance for replacing missing secured data folders, secured library
objects, and secured table objects.
Note: Some of the resolutions in
this section use the REPAIR statement, which is a preproduction feature
in the current release. As an alternative to using the REPAIR statement,
you can create a new physical library, bind that library to metadata,
and use the SAS COPY procedure to copy your data into the new library.
See (Preproduction) REPAIR Statement.
Issue: A secured data folder is missing.
Use one of the following
approaches:
-
Use the metadata promotion tools
to import the folder (and its contents) from an existing package.
See Chapter 18, “Promotion Tools Overview,” in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
-
Re-create the folder in SAS Management
Console. On the
Folders tab, navigate to
the appropriate location (under a repository’s
/System/Secured
Libraries branch), right-click, and select
New
Folder.
-
Restore the folder (and its contents)
from a metadata server backup.
See Chapter 12, “Backing Up and Recovering the SAS Metadata Server,” in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
Issue: A secured library object is missing.
Use one of the following
approaches:
-
Use the metadata promotion tools
to import the secured library object (and its secured table objects)
from an existing package.
See Chapter 18, “Promotion Tools Overview,” in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
-
Use the REPAIR statement of the
AUTHLIB procedure, with the ADD action and the METADATA option.
-
Restore the secured library object
from a metadata server backup.
See Chapter 12, “Backing Up and Recovering the SAS Metadata Server,” in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
Issue: A secured table object is missing.
Use one of the following
approaches:
-
Use the metadata promotion tools
to import the secured table object’s parent library from an
existing package. The import overwrites the current secured library
object and its child objects, and it re-creates any missing secured
table objects.
See Chapter 18, “Promotion Tools Overview,” in SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
-
Use the REPAIR statement of the
AUTHLIB procedure, with the ADD action and the METADATA option.
-
Restore the secured table object
from a metadata server backup.
