Copying the SAS Embedded Process Install Script to the Hadoop Cluster

Creating the SAS Embedded Process Directory

Create a new directory on the Hadoop master node that is not part of an existing directory structure, such as /sasep.
This path is created on each node in the Hadoop cluster during the SAS Embedded Process installation. We do not recommend that you use existing system directories such as /opt or /usr. This new directory is referred to as EPInstallDir throughout this section.

Copying the SAS Embedded Process Install Script

The SAS Embedded Process install script is contained in a self-extracting archive file named sepcorehadp-9.43000-1.sh. This file is contained in a ZIP file that is put in a directory in your SAS Software Depot.
Using a method of your choice, transfer the ZIP file to the EPInstallDir on your Hadoop master node.
  1. Navigate to the YourSASDepot/standalone_installs directory.
    This directory was created when your SAS Software Depot was created by the SAS Download Manager.
  2. Locate the en_sasexe.zip file. The en_sasexe.zip file is located in the following directory: YourSASDepot/standalone_installs/SAS_Core_Embedded_Process_Package_for_Hadoop/9_43/Hadoop_on_Linux_x64/.
    The sepcorehadp-9.43000-1.sh. file is included in this ZIP file.
  3. Log on to the cluster using SSH with sudo access.
    ssh username@serverhostname
    sudo su - 
  4. Copy the en_sasexe.zip file from the client to the EPInstallDir on the cluster. This example uses secure copy.
    scp en_sasexe.zip username@hdpclus1: /EPInstallDir
    Note: The location where you transfer the en_sasexe.zip file becomes the SAS Embedded Process home and is referred to as EPInstallDir throughout this section.
CAUTION:
After installation, do not delete your SAS Software Depot standalone_installs directory or any of its subdirectories.
If hot fixes are made available for your software, they are moved to a subdirectory of the /standalone_installs/SAS_Core_Embedded_Process_Package_for_Hadoop/ directory. The SAS Deployment Manager requires that both the initial installation files and the hot fix file exist in a subdirectory of the original SAS Software Depot /standalone_installs/SAS_Core_Embedded_Process_Package_for_Hadoop/ directory.
