Before applying this hot fix, follow the instructions in SAS Note 35968 to generate a SAS Deployment Registry report, then verify that the appropriate product releases are installed on your system. The release number information in the Registry report should match the 'member' release number information provided above for the software components installed on each machine in your deployment.

The hot fix downloaded, G72002pt.zip, includes the updates required for all components listed above on all applicable operating systems. To apply this hot fix on multiple machines, you can either save G72002pt.zip on each machine or save it in a network location that is accessible to all machines.

Do NOT extract the contents of G72002pt.zip. The hot fix installation process will extract the contents as needed.


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.


INSTALLATION

Hot Fix G72002 must be installed on each machine where the updated components of the product, listed above, are installed. During the installation process you may see references to all operating systems for which updates are provided in the hot fix. The installation process will determine the operating system and which component(s) of SAS Enterprise Miner 7.1_M1 require updating on the machine. See SAS Note 44810 for more details.

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.

After downloading G72002pt.zip, follow the instructions provided in the SAS Deployment Wizard/SAS Deployment Manager 9.3: User’s Guide; see the Applying Hot Fixes for Windows and UNIX section in Chapter 5 -- SAS Deployment Manager Tasks to complete the installation of the hot fix.


The hot fix installation process generates the log file

<!SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs/IT_date-and-time-stamp.log
for example, IT_2011-10-31-13.18.21.log. Each attempt to apply a hot fix results in the creation of a new log file giving detailed information regarding the installation process.

Postexec log files are created after the installation is completed and identifies the files that were added, backed up, changed and removed. These log files include the ‘member’ hot fix id in the name of the file and are also written to the <!SASHOME>/InstallMisc/InstallLogs directory. There is one postexec log for each ‘member’ hot fix applied (member hot fixes are listed at the top of these instructions).


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

G79001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Client 7.1_M1
G80001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Logical Types 7.1_M1
G82001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Mid-Tier 7.1_M1

G79001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Client 7.1_M1

  1. Go to <SASHOME>\ SASEnterpriseMinerClient\7.1
  2. Create a backup of the em.ini file
  3. Open the em.ini file and add the following lines immediately after existing JavaArgs lines in this file:
    JavaArgs_<NEXT NUMBERIC VALUE*>=-Dhttp.proxyHost=<serverName.proxy.domain.com>
    JavaArgs_<NEXT NUMBERIC VALUE>=-Dhttp.proxyPort=<web application server port>**
    JavaArgs_<NEXT NUMBERIC VALUE>=-Dhttps.proxyHost=<serverName.proxy.domain.com>
    JavaArgs_<NEXT NUMBERIC VALUE>=-Dhttps.proxyPort=<web application server port>
    
    *Increment to be one greater than the numeric value on the previous line
    **See your instructions.html file found in <config dir>\Lev1\Documents to determine the
    appropriate port value to use here.
    
    Note that if your site only supports HTTP then just make the HTTPS entries the same as the
    HTTP entries.
    


G80001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Logical Types 7.1_M1

NONE


G82001  updates  SAS Enterprise Miner Mid-Tier 7.1_M1

The following Post-Install instructions for the mid-tier only needs to be followed, if you site obtain the EM7.1 client via Java Web Start. If they don’t then you can skip this step.

Note that this instructions provide example filenames and directory names based on a Windows deployment; if your deployment is to a different host OS please make the appropriate adjustments.

  1. Stop the JBoss application server containing the sas.enterpriseminer7.1.ear.
    1. Because of step outlined earlier this server should be stopped already.
  2. Once the application server has stopped then you will need to copy the sas.svcs.assembly.jar out of the VJR and use it to replace the jar of the same name in the jws-lib directory as described below. Remember that the jar you want is the signed version of the jar since that is what Java Web Start needs to send down to the client. Within the SAS Version Jar Repository the appropriate sas.svcs.assembly.jar file can be found in the folder named similar to:
    1. C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASVersionedJarRepository\eclipse\plugins\sas.svcs.assembly.signed_20130919_903000.0.0.20110518190000_v930\
      1. Note that the date and time stamp between …assembly.signed_ and _v930 may be different on your installation.
    2. Copy that jar to <ApplicationServerInstallDir>\jboss-as\server\SASServer11_Lev1\deploy_sas\sas.enterpriseminer7.1.ear\sas.enterpriseminer.jws.war\WEB-INF\jws-lib
      1. Note that your installation might only have a SASServer1 and not a SASServer11 so use that instead. Also your Lev# may be different so use the one appropriate for your environment.
  3. Start the SAS Metadata Server and launch the SAS Management Console connecting to that Metadata Server.
  4. In the Plug-ins panel open the following tree:
    1. Application Management->Configuration Manger->SAS Application Infrastructure->Enterprise Miner Mid-Tier JWS 7.1
  5. Right click on the last entry in the tree above and select Properties.
  6. Under the Settings tab select the Virtual Machine Options in the left-hand pane.
  7. In the VM arguments: text box enter the following after substituting the proper host and port information for your forward proxy:
    1. http.proxyHost=<HOSTNAME>; http.proxyPort=<PORT>; https.proxyHost=<HOSTNAME>; https.proxyPort=<PORT>
    2. If you only support HTTP then you do not need to include the two HTTPS entries though adding them and giving them the same values the HTTP entries will not hurt anything.
  8. Save this information.
  9. Restart all the services and servers previously stopped.
