Changing SAS 9.1 Administrative Passwords
Sunday, March 2nd, 2008If you ever need to change the passord for one of the SAS Administrator id’s (i.e. sasadm, sastrust, saswbadm, sassrv, sasdemo etc) then you will find that it is not a simple case of updating the hosts password and metadata passwords.
There are a few more places that you will need to edit.
SAS Tech Support have a document that explains what you need to do - TS736 - Changing Password for Default Users
The doc is orientated towards a solutions based install, but you will need to follow most of the steps, depending on what products you have installed (i.e. Business Intelligence Server, Data Integration Server etc)
As you will see lots of text edits required, but I wont rant about why this shouldn’t be so difficult, here’s hoping SAS 9.2 makes it a little easier…..
