Before
you begin administering the SAS Intelligence Platform, you should
be aware of the following components that have been put in place during
the installation and deployment process:
-
SAS Management Console, which is a Java application that
provides a single point of control for administering the SAS Intelligence
Platform.
-
-
the
SAS Metadata Server, which serves metadata from one or more SAS Metadata Repositories
to all SAS Intelligence Platform client applications.
-
the SAS Application Server components that have been installed
and configured in your environment to run SAS processes. These components
can include SAS Workspace Servers, SAS Pooled Workspace Servers, SAS
Stored Process Servers, SAS OLAP Servers,
SAS/CONNECT servers, SAS
Grid Servers, and SAS batch servers.
Note: In the SAS Intelligence
Platform, the term server refers to a program or programs that wait
for and fulfill requests from client programs for data or services.
The term server does not necessarily refer to a specific computer,
since a single computer can host one or more servers of various types.
-
other SAS servers that might have been installed in your environment, including
a
SAS/SHARE server, a SAS Content Server, and a SAS Framework Data
Server.
-
the ports that are used by each server to listen for incoming requests.
-
the configuration directory that stores configuration files, logs,
scripts, and special-purpose SAS data sets on each SAS server machine
and each middle-tier machine.
