IMPORTANT NOTES

  1. You must have SAS Thread-safe Compiler and Symbolic Differentiator 9.46 installed on your system before applying this hot fix. Refer to SN-35968 for instructions on how to determine which product releases you have installed.

  2. Files delivered in this hot fix will be backed up during the installation process. However, it is good general practice to back up your system before applying updates to software.

  3. You must have Administrator Privileges on your CLIENT or SERVER machine.

  4. All currently active SAS sessions, daemons, spawners and servers must be terminated before applying this hot fix.

  5. This hot fix should be installed using the same userid who performed the initial software installation.

  6. 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.


INSTALLATION

The D3J001 hot fix for SAS Thread-safe Compiler and Symbolic Differentiator 9.46 will be installed using the SAS Deployment Manager. By default, the SAS Deployment Manager 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.

After downloading D3J001la.zip, follow the instructions for applying hot fixes in the SAS Deployment Wizard and SAS Deployment Manager 9.4: User's Guide.

Please review the CONFIGURATION Important Note above concerning proper selection of the "Configure SAS Hot Fix" option in the SAS Deployment Manager.

The content of this hot fix is listed in the hot fix manifest.


POST-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Required only for distributed deployments:

  1. Copy <SASHOME>/SASFoundation/9.4/misc/cmp/TKGrid_HF_x86_64.sh grid hot fix installer to the parent directory of the existing TKGrid installation on the first node of the computing appliance. For RHEL5, use the TKGrid_HF_x86_64_rhel5.sh script.

  2. Log in to the first node of the computing appliance and run the following (modify path to match your installation location):
    $ umask 022
    $ cd /install
    $ /bin/sh ./TKGrid_HF_x86_64.sh

    You should see the following:

    Verifying archive integrity... All good.
    Uncompressing TKGrid...........
    running TKGrid/bin_tkcmp_01/hfInstall TKGrid /install
    TKGrid HotFix Configuration Utility.
    Running on 'gridnode01.orion.com'
    Using stdin for options.
    Shared install or replicate to each node? (Y=SHARED/n=replicated)

  3. Check with your grid install team to determine if the computing appliance uses a replicated or shared approach. Answer the question accordingly and proceed with the computing appliance update. If necessary, respond with YES to confirm the software update on all of the other computing appliance nodes.

    The updated shared libraries will be located in the /install/TKGrid/lib_tkcmp_01 folder (or libN where N is the version number for the hot fix update).
    If necessary, the permissions on the /install/TKGrid folder for all computing appliance nodes may need to be updated for group read/write permissions.

  4. Check with your grid install team to determine if the computing appliance uses a replicated or shared approach for TKGrid_REP. If so, follow these steps to update the tkmpirsh.sh file in TKGrid_REP deployment.

  5. Edit the TKGrid_REP/tkmpirsh.sh file

  6. Search for the first reference of “export TKPATH=” in the file, for example you may something like this:

    export TKERSA2_LIB_PATH=$TKMPI_DIR/lib2
    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib2
    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib:$TKMPI_DIR/bin
  7. Before the first “export TKPATH=” line, insert the following line:

    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib_tkcmp_01
  8. Once the new line has been inserted, save the updated file. It may look something like this:

    export TKERSA2_LIB_PATH=$TKMPI_DIR/lib2
    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib_tkcmp_01
    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib2
    export TKPATH=$TKPATH:$TKMPI_DIR/lib:$TKMPI_DIR/bin
  9. If the TKGrid_REP is replicated, push the updated file out to the other nodes in the computing appliance with simcp:

    /opt/TKGrid/bin/simcp /opt/TKGrid_REP/tkmpirsh.sh /opt/TKGrid_REP



This completes the installation of hot fix D3J001 on Linux for x64.
