set USEMETADATA=0
2 Locate the line that sets the value of the IsService option, and change it so that
it reads:
set IsService=0
3 Locate the line that begins echo Manual start of Spawner. Make sure that the
start command on the next line contains the -security option. For example, the
finished start command might look like this:
start \b "Connect Spawner" "%sasdir%\spawner" -security -service %CONNPORT%
-SASCMD %CONNCMD%
4 Save your changes to ConnectServer.bat.
5 Start the spawner by running the script StartConnectServer.bat, which is
located in the same directory as the ConnectServer.bat script. To start a
spawner by using a command that contains the -security option, you must have
the following Windows user rights:
3 Act as part of the operating system
3 Adjust memory quotas for a process (or Increase quotas)
3 Bypass traverse checking
3 Log on locally
3 Replace a process level token
On UNIX systems, you edit and then run the script
SAS-config-dir\Lev2\SASMain\ConnectServer\ConnectServer.sh.
1 In the file ConnectServer.sh, locate the line that sets the value of the
USEMETADATA option, and change it so that it reads:
set USEMETADATA=0
2 Save your changes to ConnectServer.sh.
3 Start the spawner by running the script ConnectServer.sh. Use the following
command:
ConnectServer.sh start
Give the Target Administrator the Required Directory Permissions
In the promotion procedure discussed in this chapter, a special account on the target
machine is used to start a SAS/CONNECT server process and to communicate with the
metadata server on that machine. This user must be an unrestricted user and must
have full access to certain directories.
On Windows systems, we recommend that you use the SAS Administrator account
(sasadm) for this purpose. This user is already an unrestricted user, but must be
granted full access to the following directories in order for the promotion to succeed:
3 SAS-config-dir\Lev2\SASMain\MetadataServer\ReplicationWorkArea and its
subdirectories
3 SAS-configdir\Lev2\SASMain\MetadataServer\MetadataRepositories\Foundation
On UNIX systems, we recommend that you use the SAS User account (sas). This
user already has access to the requisite directories; however, the user is not an
unrestricted user of the metadata. To make sas an unrestricted user, enter the following
line in the file adminUsers.txt:
*sas
