CONFIGURATION: No automatic configuration scripting is included for this hot fix. If you have previously configured software installed, the SAS Deployment Manager may present a screen where you will see "Apply SAS Hot Fixes" and "Configure SAS Hot Fixes" options. On this screen, you must ensure that the "Configure SAS Hot Fix" option is *not* selected. If this option is automatically selected, please de-select it prior to proceeding with the SAS Deployment Manager Screens. Failure to do so could have unintended consequences when applying this hot fix.
Before applying this hot fix, follow the instructions in SAS Note 35968 to generate a SAS Deployment Registry report.
Commands to create the report:Two files are created: DeploymentRegistry.txt and DeploymentRegistry.html. Either of these files can be used to verify that the appropriate product releases are installed on your system. The release number information in the Deployment Registry report should match the 'member' release number provided above for the software components installed on each machine in your deployment. In addition, you can determine the current hot fix level by comparing the HOT FIX COMPONENT HISTORY chart above with the hot fix entries in the Deployment Registry report.
Backup the following on each Server:
For a detailed list of updated files, see the hot fix manifest. NOTE: The manifest is cumulative for all hot fixes for this release.
Hot Fix A2W006 must be installed on each machine where the updated components of the product, listed above, are installed.
The hot fix will be applied using the SAS Deployment Manager (SDM). By default, the SDM will search in the <SASHOME>/InstallMisc/HotFixes/New directory for hot fixes to be applied, but will also prompt for a location if you have downloaded hot fixes to a different directory. Do NOT extract the contents of A2W006pt.zip into the selected directory. The hot fix installation process will extract the contents as needed.
After copying A2W006pt.zip, follow the instructions for applying hot fixes in the SAS Deployment Wizard and SAS Deployment Manager 9.4: User's Guide.
For example:
$ export DISPLAY=<displayname>:0
From the SASDeploymentManager directory execute sasdm.sh
$ cd <SASHOME>/SASDeploymentManager/9.4
$ ./sasdm.sh
Notes:
The hot fix installation process generates the log file
<!SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs/IT_date-and-time-stamp.logFor example, IT_2011-10-31-13.18.21.log. Each attempt to apply a hot fix results in the creation of a new log file giving detailed information regarding the installation process.
Postexec log files are created after the installation is complete. These log files identify the files that were added, backed up, changed and removed. These log files include the 'member' hot fix id in the name of the file and are also written to the <!SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs directory. There is one postexec log for each 'member' hot fix applied (member hot fixes are listed at the top of these instructions).
This section describes custom steps that depend on the starting version of your system before this hot fix was installed. Locate your starting version in the first column of the table below and perform only those steps listed in the second column for that version.
Starting Version | Steps |
---|---|
4.4M0 (No Hot Fix) |
Steps for upgrade from 4.4M0 to HF6
|
4.4M0 HF1 | Steps for upgrade from HF1 to HF6
|
4.4M0 HF2 | Steps for upgrade from HF2 to HF6
|
4.4M0 HF3 | Steps for upgrade from HF3 to HF6
|
4.4M0 HF4 | Steps for upgrade from HF4 to HF6There are no custom steps for the server tier to upgrade from HF4 to HF6. |
4.4M0 HF5 | Steps for upgrade from HF5 to HF6There are no custom steps for the server tier to upgrade from HF4 to HF6. |
Prior to HF4, DDL files were manually run against the databases. The DDL packages and installation instructions are listed in Step 1 below. You must apply any DDL that has not yet been applied to your databases before continuing to Step 2.
Starting with 4.4M0 HF4, SAS Fraud Management has changed to a DBMS Package that is based on a continuous integration process to maintain changes in the three target databases. Step 2 below lists the scripts to run.
You must manually configure SAS Fraud Management DBMS Package on your Batch server before running the database scripts. The configuration steps are described in this document: 44M0HF4 SAS Fraud Management DBMS Package Configuration Instructions
IMPORTANT: Database updates that have been run during previous hot fix installations should NOT be run a second time.
The table below indicates the files that need to be run for each individual hot fix. These files are not cumulative. You will need to know the prior hot fix level of your system to determine which files to run. The SAS Deployment Registry report created in the PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS step can be used to determine the prior hot fix level if you do not already know it.
IMPORTANT: The SAS Fraud Management DBMS Package must be configured before completing this section. The configuration steps are described in this document: 44M0HF4 SAS Fraud Management DBMS Package Configuration Instructions
On the first execution, the runtime will be longer than usual. The DBMS package must mark existing DBMS objects as already installed in the table FMX_CHANGE_LOG_<MEH|SOR|TDR>;
Vendor | Database | Hot fix | Updates |
---|---|---|---|
DB2 and Oracle | SOR | HF4 | Remove support for O## |
DB2 and Oracle | TDR | HF4 | Remove the FCM_<tabname>_OXX tables. |
DB2 | MEH | HF4 | Update the MEH_DELETE_DATA stored procedure. |
DB2 and Oracle | SOR | HF5 | Add the new analyst.alert.alertInfoPanelDisplay property. |
Oracle | TDR | HF5 | Update the GET_SIGNATURE stored procedure. |
Oracle | TDR | HF6 | Add new index, NDX6_<tabname>, for the transaction tables. |

IMPORTANT: Perform this step only if "SAS Fraud Management Mid-Tier" component was updated by this hot fix.
In order for this step to execute correctly, the Metadata Server must be running.
$ export DISPLAY=<displayname>:0
From the SASDeploymentManager directory execute sasdm.sh, for example
$ cd <SASHOME>/SASDeploymentManager/9.4
$ ./sasdm.sh

See SAS 9.4 Intelligence Platform Middle-Tier Administration Guide for more details on deploying Web Applications.
Log in to the web application as a user with the privilege to deploy rules on the Console tab. Deploy all the existing rules files.
Run a new SAS Deployment Registry report following the same steps as in the PRE-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. The new report files will overwrite the existing ones. To retain the old files, save them to a new location or rename them before running the commands.
Please send a copy of the final Deployment Registry report to SAS Fraud Management support.
This completes the installation of hot fix A2W006 on Linux for x64.
