Introduction

How to Use These Checklists

Before you begin installing the SAS Intelligence Platform, you should fill out the checklists included in this document (or those in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Installation and Configuration Guide). They give you a place to record information about operating system user accounts and groups that you must create, about TCP/IP ports that you must select, and about the installation of third-party products.

Note: If you are installing a SAS solution in addition to the SAS Intelligence Platform, please go to the following URL to determine whether there are any pre-installation instructions specific to your solution: http://support.sas.com/documentation/onlinedoc. Select your solution from the product selection list on the Documentation for SAS Products and Solutions page, and work through any solution-specific pre-installation checklist. [cautionend]

Note: These checklists are superseded by more complete and up-to-date checklists that can be found at http://support.sas.com/installcenter/plans. This Web site also contains a corresponding deployment plan and an architectural diagram. [cautionend]
