Step 2: Run the SAS Deployment Wizard

About the SAS Deployment Wizard

Use the SAS Deployment Wizard to install SAS IT Resource Management 3.2. Specify that this is a migration installation. This action causes the wizard to read the migration package that was created by step 1. The wizard then migrates the metadata content and configuration information so that it can run in SAS 9.2. For information about this wizard, see the SAS Deployment Wizard: User’s Guide at http://support.sas.com/documentation/installcenter/92/.

Perform the Migration to SAS IT Resource Management 3.2 on SAS 9.2

After you create your SAS Migration Utility package and complete your migration assessment, follow these steps to install and configure SAS 9.2 and SAS IT Resource Management 3.2. During this process, you have the option to perform migration.
  1. Begin the deployment by locating the SAS Deployment Wizard.
    Windows Specifics: Select setup.exe from the software depot that you downloaded.
    UNIX Specifics: Select setup.sh.
    z/OS Specifics: Navigate to the root directory of the media that you are working on and type ./setup.rexx at a command prompt.
    These scripts launch the SAS Deployment Wizard, which helps you install and configure SAS 9.2 products. For more information about the SAS Deployment Wizard, see the SAS Deployment Wizard: User’s Guide at http://support.sas.com/documentation/installcenter/92/.
  2. In the SAS Deployment Wizard, specify a deployment plan for your installation.
    If you have not already done so, contact your SAS representative to obtain a valid SAS 9.2 deployment plan file. A plan file is a necessary component of the SAS Deployment Wizard. This wizard is the tool that you use to install SAS 9.2 and to migrate the package that contains your SAS 9.1.3 data and configuration.
    When you contact your SAS representative, it is helpful to have a migration analysis report that represents the current status of your SAS 9.1.3 deployment. For more information, see “SAS 9.2 Changes that Affect the Deployment Plan” topic in the chapter called “Installing SAS 9.2 and Migrating Your SAS Content” in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Migration Guide.
  3. Respond to the prompts of the SAS Deployment Wizard until the Migration Information page appears. On this page, select the Perform Migration box, and enter the path for the migration package that you created.
  4. When prompted, select whether to use the External User ID or SAS internal account.
    This selection determines whether you specify both the user ID and password or just the password for the Unrestricted User and Trusted User IDs. If you choose External User ID, make sure that you provide the value for the user ID in a qualified format. For a Windows account, this could be domain\UserID or machine\UserID. On UNIX, do not use the machine name as part of the user ID.
    Note: The external accounts on the SAS IT Resource Management 3.2 machine must match the accounts that were used for SAS Administrator and SAS Trusted User on the SAS IT Resource Management 3.1.1 machine.
  5. Complete the installation and configuration process, and then perform any required post-installation steps.
    The Instructions.html file that is produced after your installation might have post-installation steps to follow.
Note: When the SAS Deployment Wizard is run specifying the Perform Migration option, it deletes any overall jobs that were created by the Adapter Setup Wizard in SAS IT Resource Management 3.1.1.
