The content of this hot fix is listed in the hot fix manifest.


POST-INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Copy three files from the SAS Home area to the SAS Configuration area

    1. Copy getmetacreds.sas and loadappcfg.sas
      FROM: <SASHome>/SASEnvironmentManagerEnablementKitServer/2.1/core/SASMacros/
      TO: <SASConfig>/LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/SASMacros/
    2. Copy create_get_tz_format.sas and getMetricData.sas
      FROM: <SASHome>/SASEnvironmentManagerEnablementKitServer/2.1/core/SASJobs/
      TO: <SASConfig>/LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/SASJobs/

  2. Modify four groovy programs to hard-code the appropriate parameter value passed to the hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn function

    NOTE:  If the platform resource (host) on which the SAS Environment Manager Service Architecture is deployed has a single-level hostname (i.e. “myServer” rather than “myServer.myDomain.com”), the following additional steps are required. If that is not the case, these steps should be skipped.

    1. Modify emiInit.groovy in /LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/Scripts
      Change the following line (~line number 332), from this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn(platform, false, false)) {
      to this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn('192.168.0.1', false, false)) {
      NOTE: The value shown above ('192.168.0.1') is only an example. Replace this with the value of shown in the field "Fully Qualified Domain Name" on the Inventory tab of the platform-level resource corresponding to the host with a single-level hostname within the SAS Environment Manager web interface. Note that while this will often be the same as the platform's IP address, it may not be. The important thing is to make sure this value matches what is shown in that field.

    2. Modify createHTTPChecks.groovy in /LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/Scripts

      Change the following line (~line number 199), from this:

      def platform = hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn(platform , false, false).resource
      to this:
      def platform = hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn('192.168.0.1' , false, false).resource
      See note above about the proper value to use.

    3. Modify createGroups.groovy in /LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/Scripts

      Change the following line (~line number 109), from this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn(platform, false, false)) {
      to this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn('192.168.0.1', false, false)) {
      See note above about the proper value to use.

    4. Modify evKitInstaller.groovy in /LevX/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/emi-framework/Scripts

      Change the following line (~line number 125), from this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn(platform, false, false)) {
      to this:
      if (!hq.api.resourceApi.getPlatformResourceByFqdn('192.168.0.1', false, false)) {
      See note above about the proper value to use.
  3. Re-start all SAS sessions, daemons, spawners and servers.

    For more information on the proper order for starting servers, go to SAS® 9.4 Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide, Fourth Edition and review the section entitled "Starting, Stopping and Checking the Status of Servers".
