POST-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

You only need to do the following instructions, if you have a SAS High-Performance Analytics Environment (HPAE).

Synopsis: The library files called t0u3zh.so and t0u3zt.so from hot fix N39001la.zip must be manually copied to the SAS High-Performance Analytics Environment (HPAE).

Steps:

  1. Back up t0u3zh.so and t0u3zt.so on your SAS HPAE.
  2. Download the Linux for x64 hot fix zip file N39001la.zip to a temporary directory (<tempdir>) on root node of SAS HPAE.
  3. In the <tempdir>, unzip N39001la.zip; then unzip products/*/en_sasexe.zip. There should be files named t0u3zh.so and t0u3zt.so in the <tempdir>/sasexe.
  4. These files should be copied under the TKGrid install location on the computing appliance; for example, /opt/TKGrid/lib. If your TKGrid uses a shared install, you need to copy t0u3zh.so and t0u3zt.so only to the shared location. However, if your TKGrid uses a replicated install, you must copy t0u3zh.so and t0u3zt.so to every node. When copying the files, make sure the proper mode of 755 is set.



This completes the installation of hot fix N39001 on Windows for x64.
