Before applying this hot fix, follow the instructions in SAS Note 35968 to generate a SAS Deployment Registry report on each server in your environment.
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. You can determine the current hot fix level by comparing the member hot fix numbers in 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.
$ ./sas.servers stop
Hot Fix F6R009 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 F6R009pt.zip into the selected directory. The hot fix installation process will extract the contents as needed.
After copying F6R009pt.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
Important: The SAS Deployment Manager will present a screen with two options: "Apply SAS hot fix" and "Configure SAS hot fix" On this screen, you must ensure that the "Configure SAS hot fix" option is *not* selected before continuing.
Notes:
$ ./sasdm.sh -reinstallhotfix
$ ./sasdm.sh -alwaysoverwrite
The hot fix installation process generates a log whose name matches this pattern:
<SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs/IT_date-and-time-stamp.logAn example file name is: IT_2021-05-28-11.00.31.log. Each attempt to apply a hot fix results in the creation of a new log file giving detailed information regarding the installation process.
For each member hot fix, additional logs are written to the <SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs directory. The logs whose names end with "_Install_postexec.log" identify the files that were added, backed up, changed and removed by the installation of that member hot fix.
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 |
---|---|
6.1M0 (No Hot Fix) or 6.1M0 HF1 or 6.1M0 HF2 or 6.1M0 HF3 |
Steps for upgrade from base 6.1M0, HF1, HF2, HF3 to HF9
|
6.1M0 HF4 or 6.1M0 HF5 |
Steps for upgrade from HF4, HF5 to HF9
|
6.1M0 HF6 or 6.1M0 HF7 or 6.1M0 HF8 |
Steps for upgrade from 6.1M0 HF6, HF7, HF8 to HF9
There are no custom steps for the server tier to upgrade from 6.1M0 HF6, HF7 or HF8 to 6.1M0 HF9. |

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.
Note: After a hot fix install, all users may need to clear their web browser cache before running the web application.
Confirm there are no errors in the log.
Confirm there are no errors in the log.
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 DeploymentRegistry.txt file to SAS Fraud Management support.
The three JAR files are:
If these jars have been updated by this hot fix or any hot fix since your starting hot fix level, they must be copied into the 'lib' subdirectory of the BOSS installation directory. For additional details see SAS Note 68969.
Important: Save a backup copy of the jars from the BOSS directory before replacing them.
