Customizing the SAS Environment

Since the configuration of SAS IT Resource Management Adapter for SAP is not handled by SAS Deployment Wizard, you need to perform certain steps manually. To customize the SAS IT Resource Management Adapter for SAP to suit your SAS environment:

Create the following folder structure on the machine where SAS IT Resource Management Adapter for SAP is installed.

The default path to create the ITManagementAdapterSAP folder structure under the Windows environment is C:\SAS\<ConfigDir>\Lev1\SASITRM\Data.

SAS Environment Folder Structure

Note: If you do not give full permission to the folder and proceed with the deployment, then an error occurs while importing the adapter jobs. Therefore, granting full permissions to the Install folder is mandatory.

Note: The default path mentioned above is for Windows environments. While working in a z/OS environment, you need to create the ITManagementAdapterSAP, Admin, and Rawdata folders in the following location.

<ConfigDir>/Lev1/SASITRM/Data/
Modify the sasv9.cfg file to configure the adapter installation path and data path.

Select the SASV9.CFG File
Add the following code to the config file:
```
-SET adptitminstall "C:\Program 
Files\SASHome\SASITResourceManagementAdapterforSAPData\3.3\
CustomSASCode"
-SET adptitmdata
"C:\SAS\Config\Lev1\SASITRM\Data\ITManagementAdapterSAP"
```
Note: The above paths are default paths in a Windows environment. Apply the above changes appropriately as per your host and Install location at your site.
In a z/OS environment, create the following variables in the config file.
```
SET='ADPTITMINSTALL1 /SASHOME' 
SET='ADPTITMINSTALL2 /SASITResourceManagementAdapterforSAPData'
SET='ADPTITMINSTALL3 /3.3/CustomSASCode'
```
These variables are required in order to find the program location while running the jobs in the SAS Data Integration Studio.

For more information about the location where you need to create these variables, see the manual entitled Configuration Guide for SAS 9.3 Foundation for z/OS.The guide has a section about customizing default options and system configuration files in the location &prefix.CONFIG.
Grant full permissions to the Install folder named CustomSASCode, as the deployment writes custom SAS code into this folder.
