SAS High-Performance Analytics Server

The SAS Deployment Manager requires information about the kind of LASR server it is going to create for use with autoload.

Server Name

Specify the name of the server to be created.

SAS High-Performance Analytics Environment Host

Specify the root node host in the SAS High-Performance Analytics environment to which the SAS clients connect. For a non-distributed environment, this should be the local host.

SAS High-Performance Analytics Environment Port

Specify the port number in the environment to which the SAS clients connect.

Signature Files Location

Specify the absolute path where the SAS LASR Analytics Server writes signature files. If you are using SAS LASR Analytic Server in distributed mode, specify a location on the SAS High-Performance Analytics environment root node. If you are using non-distributed mode, this path is located on the local machine. It is important to carefully manage access to the signature files directory. User IDs under which certain activities are performed (for example, starting a server or loading data) must have write access to the directory. Access to a signature files directory can provide access to loaded data, so the signature files directory should be protected against unauthorized access.

Location of the TKGrid or TKGrid_REP Directory

Note: This field is only present on the page if you selected the Distributed option on the previous page.

Specify the path to the TKGrid (Threaded Kernel Grid) or TKGrid_REP (Threaded Kernel Grid with Remote Embedded Process) directory on the environment host. In order to support parallel loads from a remote (not co-located) data provider, you must specify a TKGrid_REP directory.

Location for the SAS Linguistic Distributed Binaries

Note: This field is only present on the page if you selected the Distributed option on the previous page.

Specify the disk directory of the SAS High-Performance Analytics Environment Host in which the SAS linguistic binary files are stored.
