INSTALLATION

Hot Fix S15003 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 Model Manager 13.1 require updating on the machine. See SAS Note 44810 for more details.

The hot fix will be applied 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 S15003pt.zip, follow the instructions for applying hot fixes in the SAS Deployment Wizard and SAS Deployment Manager 9.4: User’s Guide.


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.

The file is named DAVTree.bat for Windows and DAVTree.sh for UNIX. Select File -> Open, enter the URL http://server-name:port/SASContentServer/repository/default/ModelManager/, and then click OK.

  3. Enter the user name and password for the configured SAS Administrator or SAS Model Manager Administrator.

  4. Expand the ConfigTemplates and SASCode directories.

  5. Right-click UDFDrop.sas in DAVTree and select Edit to open it in the text editor.

  6. Using a text editor, open <SASHOME>\SASModelManagerMidTier\13.1\Config\Deployment\Content\SASCode\UDFDrop.sas, copy all of the contents, and then paste it into the DAVTree text editor to replace the contents of the UDFDrop.sas file from Step 5. Click Save.

  7. Right-click genVarMacro.sas in DAVTree and select Edit to open it in the text editor.

  8. Using a text editor, open <SASHOME>\SASModelManagerMidTier\13.1\Config\Deployment\Content\SASCode\genVarMacro.sas, copy all of the contents, and then paste it into the DAVTree text editor to replace the contents of the genVarMacro.sas file from Step 7. Click Save.

  9. Stop the SAS Web Application Servers that hosts sas.modelmanager.jsvcs.war.

  10. Delete _mm_config directory from this location: <SASConfig>\Web\WebAppServer\SASServer<#>\temp, where SASServer<#> is the SAS Web Application Server that hosts sas.modelmanager.jsvcs.war. For example, it could be SASServer11_1.

  11. Start the SAS Web Application Servers that hosts sas.modelmanager.jsvcs.war.
