NO MORE HOSTS LEFT

This error occurs because the deletion of the admin user failed. The admin user name is wrapped in double quotes, which is the root cause of this error.

Workaround

To circumvent this issue, edit the /opt/sas/viya/home/share/svi-configuration/svi-configuration-function.sh script and rerun the playbook.

Change line 255 as follows:

Original:

user_create_access_token=$(echo "$user_create_access_body" | ${JQ_CMD} ".access_token") || return

New:

user_create_access_token=$(echo "$user_create_access_body" | ${JQ_CMD} -r ".access_token") || return

An upgrade fails with error "The token expired, was revoked, or the token ID is incorrect"
