The shared folder contains
all of the files that are stored and referenced by the SAS Data Loader
for Hadoop. The folder is located outside of the vApp. For example,
it can be located in the same directory as your SAS Data Loader program
files. The contents of the shared folder persist across vApp updates,
which eliminates the need for migration or configuration during those
updates.
The subfolders that
are created inside the shared folder are as follows:
Configuration
contains sasdemo.pub,
which is an SSH key file. The file is moved to a grid of SAS LASR
Analytic Servers when Hadoop data is to be loaded into those servers
for analysis using the Load Data to LASR directive.
Configuration\DMServices
and HadoopConfig
contains a database
of Hadoop configuration data and all saved directives. The database
is populated automatically after your initial configuration of the
SAS Data Loader: Information Center.
InClusterBundle
contains two self-extracting
script files (*.sh) that administrators use to deploy the SAS In-Database
Technologies for Hadoop across the Hadoop cluster. A JAR file (*.jar)
contains utilities that deploy the SAS Quality Knowledge Base across
the Hadoop cluster.
Logs
contains the log files
that are generated when you enable vApp logging in the Settings menu
in SAS Data Loader: Information Center.
JDBCDrivers
contains the drivers
that enable the loading of data into and out of Hadoop.
Profiles
contains all of the
profiles that are created with the Profile Data directive.
SASData
contains the SAS data
that enables the SAS instance on the client host to communicate with
the SAS instances on the Hadoop cluster.
