INSTALLATION

  1. On the NameNode of your Hadoop cluster, create a directory called “hotfix” within your /SASEPHome location called “hotfix”.
    mkdir /SASEPHome/hotfix
  2. Transfer the file A6S003hl.tar to the hot fix directory you created.

  3. Extract the file.
    cd <EPInstallDir>/SASEPHome/hotfix
    tar -xvf ./A6S003hl.tar
  4. Verify that the A6S003 subdirectory now contains the extracted file, sepcorehadphf-12.00000-1.sh.

  5. Navigate to the “bin” directory of your SASEPHome directory.
    cd <EPInstallDir>/SASEPHome/bin
  6. Execute the sasep-admin.sh script with the -hotfix flag, followed by the path to the hot fix file.
    ./sasep-admin.sh -hotfix ../hotfix/A6S003/sepcorehadphf-12.00000-1.sh
  7. Validate that the nodes of your cluster have been successfully patched by inspecting the output from the sasep-admin.sh command. You should see the following output corresponding to each node in your cluster:
    <hostname> INFO: SAS Embedded Process successfully hotfixed.



This completes the installation of hot fix A6S003 on Hadoop on Linux x64.
