IMPORTANT NOTES

  1. 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.

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

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

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

  5. ECM Integration Queue
    A new ECM integration queue will be required to use this functionality. If one is not provided to the application, then the ECM integration message will not be sent when confirmed fraud alerts are saved. The queue configuration will be managed inside the WebSphere Deployment Manager and the MQ queue manager. Persistence and expiry settings are managed outside of SAS Fraud Management. These values must be based on average message size and queue depth and how quickly the consumer of the information can process the contents of the message before removing them from the queue. SSL communication between WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere MQ is a supported configuration with the SAS Fraud Management web application. These security settings are managed in the WebSphere Console.

  6. Work Manager
    The work manager will provide the container managed threads. The maximum number of threads in the thread pool depends on the average number of confirmed fraud alerts per day and the average number of fraudulent transactions per alert that are serialized to XML. Any changes to the thread pool are managed through the WebSphere console.


INSTALLATION


  1. The D63002r6.bin download is a compressed tar file. Copy D63002r6.bin to each 64-bit Enabled AIX machine on which SAS Fraud Management 3.2 components are installed.
    Uncompress the tar file with this command:
    $> cd ~
    $> tar -xf D63002r6.tar

    This will extract these components to the user's D63002 subdirectory:
    D71002r6.bin
    D93001r6.bin
    D94001r6.bin
    D55002r6.bin
    sasfmcp_db2_rpthist_patch_3.2.0.1.tar
    sasfmcp_db2_rpthist_patch_3.2.0.2.tar
    sasfmcp_db2_sor_patch_3.2.0.1.tar
    sasfmcp_db2_sor_patch_3.2.0.2.tar

  2. Copy D71002r6.bin to each machine where SAS Fraud Management Mid-Tier 3.2 is installed.

  3. Copy D93001r6.bin to each machine where SAS Fraud Management Alert Generation Server 3.2 is installed.

  4. Copy D94001r6.bin to each machine where SAS Fraud Management Scoring Engine 3.2 is installed.

  5. Copy D55002r6.bin to each machine where SAS Fraud Management Reporting History DB Maintenance Macros 3.2 is installed.

  6. Copy sasfmcp_db2_rpthist_patch_3.2.0.1.tar and sasfmcp_db2_rpthist_patch_3.2.0.2.tar to each machine.

  7. Copy sasfmcp_db2_sor_patch_3.2.0.1.tar and sasfmcp_db2_sor_patch_3.2.0.2.tar to each machine.

  2. Create ECM Integration MQ Queue Resource by logging onto your WAS Console and performing the following steps:
    1. Navigate to Resources > JMS > Queues
    2. Click New
    3. Select WebSphere MQ messaging provider
    4. Enter the General Properties (example values)
      • Name: SASCreditFraudECMISendDest
      • JNDI name: jms/SASCreditFraudECMISendDest
      • Queue name: ECMI_Request
    5. Under Advanced Properties (depends on your policy rules)
      • Persistence: As per WebSphere MQ queue definition or WebSphere MQ persistent
      • Priority: As per WebSphere MQ queue definition or Specified
      • Expiry: Unlimited or Specified

  4. To update the web application deployed to your application server:

    Step 1: Re-build Web Applications

    In order for this step to execute correctly, the Metadata Server must be running.

    1.1 Set the DISPLAY environment variable, for example

    $ export DISPLAY=<displayname>:0

    1.2 Invoke the SAS Deployment Manager 9.2

    From the SASDeploymentManager directory execute config.sh, for example

    $ cd <SASHOME>/SASDeploymentManager/9.2
    $ ./config.sh

    1.3 Select a language in the Choose Language box

    1.4 Select Rebuild Web Applications

    1.5 Select Configuration Directory or Enter the Configuration Directory and Level that needs to be updated

    1.8 Verify the information on the Summary screen and select Start

    1.9 Select Finish when the deployment is complete


    This process will update the Fraud Management ear in <CONFIGDIR>/Lev1/Web/Staging. A backup of the original ear file will be placed in the Backup directory.


    Step 2: Re-deploy Web Applications

    2.1 Re-deploy the web applications based on the instructions in SAS Web Application Administration Guide, Chapter 8, for the web application server you are using.
