That depends on the type of access they have and on the dataset profiles. The part about filling up the MC, of course, applies regardless.

Nobody who doesn't thoroughly understand catalog management should be able to update the master catalog, because you can easily destroy the system by removing critical dataset entries. Much more typically, it just fills up with junk. sas On Thu, Sep 17, 2020 at 11:58 AM Gibney, David Allen <gib...@wsu.edu> wrote: > I could damage the catalog, perhaps as easily as adding datasets until I > overflow it.
