The name of the tar file is 82bc10r6.tar.Z, and it contains the following files: * sasomdbi.82bc10 the replacement executable containing the hot fix * sasomdbi a link to sasomdbi.82bc10 * mddb.sas7bcat.82bc10 the replacement catalog containing the hot fix * mddb.sas7bcat a link to mddb.sas7bcat.82bc10 * mb.sas7bcat.82bc10 the replacement catalog containing the hot fix * mb.sas7bcat a link to mb.sas7bcat.82bc10 * sasexprc.82bc10 the replacement executable containing the hot fix * sasexprc a link to sasexprc.82bc10 * 82bc10r6.aud a hot fix identifier file that will allow Technical Support to determine which fixes have been applied to a system * 82bc10r6.txt a copy of these installation instructions; this file is installed in !SASROOT/hotfix/doc IMPORTANT NOTE(S): 1. You must have Release 8.2 (TS2M0) installed on your system before applying this hot fix. AFTER DOWNLOADING: The following instructions describe the steps for installing the files listed above. In this example, !SASROOT, the directory where Release 8.2 (TS2M0) is installed, is: /usr/lib/sas8 STEP 1: Assuming the tar file is downloaded to the user's HOME directory, follow these procedures to install the package. $> cd /usr/lib/sas8 $> uncompress -c $HOME/82bc10r6.tar | tar -xf - STEP 2: Once the tar command is complete, it is necessary to edit the config file, !SASROOT/sasv8.cfg. 1. The following line must be added as the first line of the !SASROOT/sasv8.cfg file: -path !SASROOT/hotfix/sasexe Do not modify any existing -PATH options in the !SASROOT/sasv8.cfg file. 2. Locate the -sashelp option in the config file and change it as follows: The default -sashelp option in the sasv8.cfg file appears as: -sashelp ( '!SASROOT/sascfg' '!SASROOT/sashelp' ) This should be amended to appear as: -sashelp ('!SASROOT/hotfix/sashelp' '!SASROOT/sascfg' '!SASROOT/sashelp' ) The path !SASROOT/hotfix/sashelp must appear first. Please be extremely careful not to modify existing paths in the current -sashelp configuration option. STEP 3: Change the ownership (using the chown command) and permissions (using the chmod command) on the files in the !SASROOT/hotfix/sasexe directory to match the ownership and permissions on the files in the !SASROOT/sasexe directory. This completes the installation of hot fix 82BC10 on AIX 64 bit.
