Audit files identify all of
the changes that occurred during an installation of a SAS maintenance
release (such as the third maintenance release for SAS 9.2) or a product-specific
maintenance release (such as SAS Text Miner 4.2_M1). The audit files
list each file that was added, deleted, or replaced. All audit files
are saved in the
SAS-installation-directory/InstallMisc/InstallLogs/Maintenance
directory.
For each SAS product
that is updated in a maintenance release, there are two audit files:
-
product-identification_preexec.log
lists all of the files
that will be updated when you install the maintenance release.
-
product-identification_postexec.log
lists all of the files
that were updated when you installed the maintenance release.
In the filename,
product-identification contains the 12–byte
code of the SAS product that is associated with that audit file. To
determine the name of the SAS product that is associated with a 12–byte
code, you can generate a deployment registry report. For more information
about how to generate this report, see SAS Note 35968 at
http://support.sas.com/kb/35/968.html.
This report lists all
of the SAS 9.2 products that are installed in the SAS installation
directory. For example, if your deployment includes SAS Web Report
Studio 4.2, then this report would include the following entry:
Host: wx6
Product Code: citationweb
Version: 4.2
Display Name: SAS Web Report Studio
Display Version: 4.2_M2
From this entry, you
can determine that a product code of citationweb represents SAS Web
Report Studio, so any audit files with “citationweb”
in the filename are for SAS Web Report Studio.
