INSTALLATION

1. The installer downloaded is G61001lx.bin.

When downloading SAS 9.2 hot fix packages, you must choose to Save the hot fix to disk, then execute the install from the saved location. Attempting to install a hot fix directly from the download page results in the error documented in SAS Note 37104.

Verify that the installation binary has execute permission. If it does not, use the chmod command to make it executable.

$> chmod 755 G61001lx.bin
2. Set your $DISPLAY environment variable
export DISPLAY=<your_node_name>:0
3. Execute G61001lx.bin
<path_to_downloaded_file>/G61001lx.bin
    For example:
./G61001lx.bin

This will initiate the installation wizard, which will guide you through the hot fix installation process. During the installation you will be prompted for the SASHOME location to be updated. You should provide the path to the top level SAS directory where the deploymntreg directory exists.
