SAS Scanner Guide

Follow these steps to configure a connection to SAS.

Step 1: Configure the Connection

Create a new connection in Admin UI https://<hostname>:<port>/manta-admin-gui/app/index.html?#/platform/connections/ to enable IBM Manta Data Lineage to analyze SAS. You will need one SAS connection in Manta for each SAS server. The connection requirements and privileges are listed in SAS Integration Requirements.

Properties That Must Be Configured

Refer to SAS Manual Inputs for additional configuration information.
