Performing Pre-migration Tasks |
As a best practice, we recommend that you make sure that you have an up-to-date operating system backup of your SAS 9.1.3 deployment. If you have a multi-machine deployment, this means your SAS Metadata Server machine, server tier, middle tier, and data tier. Make sure that you have shut down the SAS 9.1.3 Metadata Server and have backed up the following:
SAS 9.1.3 configuration and metadata repository directories
By default, these directories are:
Windows:
C:\SAS\configuration-directory\Levn
UNIX:
/users/sas/SAS/configuration-name/Levn
Note: When
backups of the metadata server configuration
directory are stored under the current metadata configuration directory, the
SAS Migration Utility might use the wrong configuration directory when it
creates the migration package. Typically, omaconfig.xml is located in the Levn/SASMain
subdirectory and the rposmgr subdirectory is
located in Levn/SASMain/MetadataServer. Any other rposmgr subdirectories
under SASMain or any other omaconfig.xml files under SASMain might cause the
migration package to be created incorrectly. To avoid this problem, rename
the backup omaconfig.xml file or the rposmgr
directory and rerun the SAS Migration Utility so that the correct subdirectory
is identified.
SAS 9.1.3 product and data directories
By default, these directories are:
Windows:
C:\Program Files\SAS
UNIX:
/usr/local/SAS
Windows Registry on the SAS 9.1.3 Metadata Server machine.
For more information, refer to your Windows documentation.
