During deployment of SAS Model Manager,
you are prompted by the SAS Deployment Wizard to specify the location
of the SAS environment file (named sas-environment.xml). An example
is http://<server>:<port>/sas/sas-environment.xml).
This file defines a set of SAS deployments at your site for client
applications to use. The sas-environment.xml file does not need to
physically exist at the location that you specify in the SAS Deployment
Wizard before beginning the SAS installation. However, knowing the
intended location of this file is important because every client installation
is prompted for this value. If you do not specify the correct URL
for the SAS environment file during deployment, then you must manually
specify the URL in a file for every client. The URL is commonly stored
in this location: \<server>\<drive>:\Program
Files\SASHome\sassw.conf
. As a best practice during
your planning process, determine a URL and share it with administrators
who perform installations.
