BEFORE DOWNLOADING:

The hot fix package downloaded is a tar file named 12gridsmc01lx.tar.



IMPORTANT NOTE(S):

1.  You must have SAS Grid Manager Plug-ins for SAS Management Console 1.2 
    installed on your system before applying this hot fix.

2.  The hotfix must be installed using the same userid that performed 
    the initial SAS Grid Manager Plug-ins for SAS Management Console 1.2 
    installation.

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

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



INSTALLING THIS HOT FIX:

1.  Technical Support strongly suggests that you back up the files being replaced by this hot fix.  
You should always try to include the current date in the name of the backup file created to 
distinguish between versions of backup files.  By doing this you will maintain a history of the file, 
which will be helpful when multiple iterations of a hot fix have been applied to the same file.  

For example,

    cp  sas.foo.jar  sas.foo.jar.02132007

where 02132007 is the date when the hot fix is applied.

The .<date> extension MUST be appended AFTER the .jar extension as it appears above.

The files that should be backed up for this hot fix are listed in Step #5 below.


2.  Extract the contents of 12gridsmc01lx.tar into a temporary directory, for 
example /tmp/12gridsmc01lx.

         $> mkdir /tmp/12gridsmc01lx

         $> cd /tmp/12gridsmc01lx

         $> tar -xf $HOME/12gridsmc01lx.tar

where $HOME is the location to where the tar file was downloaded.


The tar command will extract the following files to the temporary directory:

	    lnx/Setup_Linux
	    lnx/media.inf 
	    lnx/setup.jar


3.  Verify that Setup_linux_Sparc has execute permission.  If it does not, use
the 'chmod' command to make it executable:

         $> cd /tmp/12gridsmc01lx/lnx

         $> chmod 755 Setup_Linux


4.  Initiate the installation wizard

         $>  export DISPLAY=<nodename>:0           <==== set your display

         $>  cd /tmp/12gridsmc01lx/lnx 

         $>  ./Setup_Linux


This will initiate the Java install wizard.  Follow the prompts to complete the
installation.  


5.  To verify the installation of the hot fix confirm that the file(s) in the location(s)
below have been updated to the level indicated by the date provided:

      <!SASHOME>/SASManagementConsole/9.1/plugins/sas.smc.gridmanager.platform.jar
	Date: 03/01/07 (EST)
     


This completes the installation of hotfix 12GRIDSMC01 on LINUX.
