IMPORTANT: FORWARD THESE SETINIT INSTRUCTIONS TO PERSONS
           RESPONSIBLE FOR APPLYING THE UPDATE TO YOUR SYSTEM

TO:        SAS/C Compiler Representative 

FROM:      SAS Institute, Inc.

SUBJECT:   Renewal of the SAS/C Compiler License Under MVS

The attached document contains the new SETINIT data which defines the
SAS/C products(s) you have licensed, the CPU on which each product is
licensed, and the corresponding expiration date(s).  Expiration date(s) are
in annual intervals of your license beginning date.  When your installation
renews its agreement with the Institute, you will receive new SETINIT
data.  The SETINIT data reflect your license agreement with the Institute.

To extend your license for the SAS/C Compiler and, if licensed, the
SAS/C++ Development System on MVS, you will be using the following files 
provided on the SAS/C installation tape and the procedures which follow.

       Description                 Dataset        
     - JCL for SAS/C               prefix.CNTL(NTRENEW)          
     - SETINIT Data SAS/C          prefix.CNTL(NTINITP)

     - JCL for SAS/C++             prefix.CNTL(CCRENEW)
     - SETINIT Data SAS/C++        prefix.CNTL(CCINITP)

          Note: prefix is the installation defined high level qualifier.

Extending the SAS/C Compiler License

     1) Update the JCL in prefix.CNTL(NTRENEW) as follows:
          a) Update the JOB card as necessary for installation requirements.
          b) Verify the STEPLIB, NATIVE, and SYSIN DD statements 
              point to the correct 'prefix' for your installation.

     2) Replace the lines in prefix.CNTL(NTINITP) with the SETINIT data for 
        the SAS/C Compiler provided with this document.

          NOTE: It is important that you enter the data exactly as shown.  Every
                character in the site name, including blanks,  and every
                non-blank character in all other lines is verfied. (Blanks are only
                considered to be significant within the site name.)  The SETINIT
                will be rejected if not entered correctly. 

     3) Submit prefix.CNTL(NTRENEW) for execution.

     4)  Verify the successful license extension by :
          a) Return code was zero.
          b) The following was printed in the SYSPRINT output:

               NOTE: INSTALLATION DEFAULTS HAVE BEEN ALTERED
        
Extending SAS/C++ Development System License 

     1) Update the JCL in prefix.CNTL(CCRENEW) as follows:
          a) Update the JOB card as necessary for installation requirements.
          b) Verify the STEPLIB, LCXX, and SYSIN DD statements 
              point to the correct prefix for your installation.

     2) Replace the lines in prefix.CNTL(CCINITP) with the SETINIT data
        for the SAS/C++ Development System provided with this document.

          NOTE: It is important that you enter the data exactly as shown.  Every
                character in the site name, including blanks,  and every
                non-blank character in all other lines is verfied. (Blanks are only
                considered to be significant within the site name.)  The SETINIT
                will be rejected if not entered correctly. 

     3) Submit prefix.CNTL(CCRENEW) for execution.

     4)  Verify the successful license extension by :
          a) A return code of zero.
          b) The following was printed in the SYSPRINT output:

               NOTE: INSTALLATION DEFAULTS HAVE BEEN ALTERED 

Trouble-Shooting

Various error messages can be generated when updating the license.  Errors are
accompanied by a return code of 8.  The most common errors are:

ERROR: INVALID CONTROL TEXT - indicates that an unrecognizable SETINIT
statement was encountered.  This is frequently caused by a failure to include the
entire SETINIT data file.

ERROR: INVALID SETINIT DATA - indicates the SETINIT data was not
entered exactly as provided by SAS Institute, Inc.  Company names are often entered
incorrectly and the SCP field is often erroneously entered as zero rather than the
letter O.

Additional errors can occur when trying to execute the updated product, such as:
     - Running on a CPU with a different cpuid than that provided with the SETINIT
       data.
     - Executing the product from a library other than the one referred to by the
       NATIVE DD statement in the NTRENEW or CCRENEW jobs.  For example,
       a copy of the library may be stored in the LPA.
