Installation Kits get new packaging and new format
SAS is reorganizing the installation kit to improve the installation experience for SAS customers. With the new packaging, all physical media kits are primarily paperless. The online Install Center is also being reorganized for easier access to the files and documentation that are needed during the installation process. The new kits will begin shipping in June 2007. Most products will use the new format.
- You will no longer receive the black binder with printed installation instructions. The media and important getting started information is contained in a shelvable SAS box. The installation instructions are delivered on a documentation CD and are available in the online Install Center.
- Install Center has been reorganized. Instead of navigating by first selecting your operating system, you will select the type of installation you are performing: Basic, Planned or Road Map (solution).
- You may receive more than one kit if you have indicated that you will have more than one operating system in a multitier installation. Kits will be clearly labeled and associated with an order number.
- This repackaging does not change the software CDs or cartridge formats that are currently being shipped in the installation kit. There is no change to DVD media.
