When a deployment of SAS BI Dashboard 4.2 involves the migration of SAS BI Dashboard 3.1 content and a restrictive permission policy has been implemented, extra steps must be taken to avoid access permission errors to the folders where the migrated data is located. Specifically, you must add the following entries into the restrictive permission policy file:

permission java.io.FilePermission

"C:${/}SAS${/}Config92${/}Lev1${/}Data${/}bidashmid${/}001-SASBIDashboard",

"read,write,delete";

permission java.io.FilePermission

"C:${/}SAS${/}Config92${/}Lev1${/}Data${/}bidashmid${/}001-SASBIDashboard${/}-",

"read,write,delete";

The exact location of the restrictive permission policy file depends on the selections that are made by the installer. For example, on Windows, the migrated data folders are typically stored in C:/SAS/Config92/Lev1/Data/bidashmid/001-SASBIDashboard. Finding the restrictive permission policy file should not be difficult because the person who configures the deployment to use restrictive permission policy file will have to locate the file in order to use it.
