SAS Safety Scalable Performance Data Server 4.5 Manual Do Utilizador

The SPD Server psmgr utility allows the SPD Server administrator to create and maintain
the data set containing the authorized SPD Server user IDs. This is the SPD Server analog
of the normal UNIX user ID facility. If you choose to run SPD Server ACL support, you
need to create and populate the SPD Server password file using this utility before starting
the SPD Server. For more information about the Password Manager utility, see 

The SPD Performance Server is available to monitor and log the activity of the SPD Server
processes. The SAS Management Console SPD Server Manager can connect to the
Performance Server to provide real-time feedback about the SPD Server process activity.

For more information about SPD Server performance monitoring, see

The SAS Management Console offers a standardized, common management tool that
enables enterprises to support many technologies from a single point of administration.
This client application uses an extensible plug-in architecture, allowing you to customize
the console to support a wide range of administrative capabilities. When you install SAS
9.2 and SPD Server 4.5, you are prompted to install the SAS Management Console utility.

In SPD Server for Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, and HP Integrity Itanium, clients can be
authenticated by psmgr, or by an LDAP Server such as Microsoft Active Directory, Sun
Java System Directory Server, or OpenLDAP from www.openldap.org. LDAP
authentication integrates with the SPD Server password facility and offers a centralized
approach to user ID and password management. SPD Server clients that use LDAP
authentication should have user accounts managed by the authenticating LDAP server. In
addition the user ID and password information must be stored on an LDAP server that the
SPD Server can access. The user ID must be entered into the SPD Server password database
through psmgr or the SAS Management Console Utility to record all other SPD Server user
information.

When a client uses LDAP authentication to connect to an SPD Server, the LDAP server
that is configured in the SPD Server's parameter file does the authentication. After the client
is verified, SPD Server uses the client's password database record for all other SPD Server
operations.

To set up LDAP authentication, the following parameters must be added to the SPD Server's
spdsserv.parm file:
