In an environment where you run SAS Grid Manager, Platform Suite for SAS, and SAS Environment Manager, the Shared Services database might increase in size very quickly. This increase occurs because Central Authentication Service (CAS) is in use and the SAS Grid Manager Agent plug-in for SAS Environment Manager creates a new ticket-granting ticket (TGT) and service ticket (ST) to communicate with the SAS^® 9.4 Platform Web Services.

When you encounter this problem, you might notice slow performance. In certain environments, tens of thousands of rows are added daily to the sas_audit table. If you think you have encountered this issue, run the following command after you connect to the Shared Services database to determine how many rows exist for the account LSF_Admin:
