This document lists the requirements for SAS Fraud Management 6.2.
SAS Fraud Management 6.2 requires SAS 9.4TS1M8 (SAS 9.4M8).
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 7.9 or later is supported.
For information about supported operating systems for SAS Foundation, use the menus to see support information for SAS 9.4 on the following web page: SAS supported operating systems.
SAS Fraud Management components for UNIX server-tier and middle-tier machines must be installed on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9 or later for x64.
To keep pace with changes to third-party technologies, SAS has adopted a general policy of supporting one or more baseline major versions and subsequent minor updates for each officially supported operating system. For example, if the baseline for SAS x is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.4, SAS x will also support Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.7 under this policy.
The full SAS Support policy that applies to third-party software can be found at https://support.sas.com/en/documentation/third-party-software-reference/baseline-and-higher.html. As part of this policy, SAS strongly encourages customers to install the latest operating-system service packs.
SAS Fraud Management Decision Engine Server includes one of the following SAS/ACESSS engines of choice:
Note: The SAS/ACCESS engine of choice must be the same on all the UNIX servers in the deployment.
Note: The SAS Fraud Management Decision Engine Server requires a SAS Metadata Server during installation and a prior installation of SAS Fraud Management Batch Server. It can be installed without the SAS Fraud Management Rules Server.
Note: SAS Metadata Server can be installed on the same machine as the SAS Fraud Management Decision Engine server, or on a separate machine.
SAS Fraud Management Batch Server includes one of the following SAS/ACESSS engines of choice:
Note: The SAS/ACCESS engine of choice must be the same on all the UNIX servers in the deployment.
SAS Fraud Management Rules Server includes one of the following SAS/ACCESS engines of choice:
Note: The SAS/ACCESS engine of choice must be the same on all the UNIX servers in the deployment.
SAS makes the following recommendations for SAS Metadata Server deployments:
The disk I/O performance of any server-class system should be sufficient. Memory requirements are highly dependent on the product mix and usage, but 8 GB of RAM are sufficient for most large deployments. For many deployments, 4 GB of RAM are sufficient and should be considered a minimum, unless the specific deployment is tested and verified to require less memory.
SAS Fraud Management 6.2 supports IBM MQ 9.3.
When you install your SAS solution software, SAS Deployment Manager installs and configures the required web application servers and web servers.
To install these servers, select one of the supported operating systems for the middle tier.
The following data sources are supported by SAS Fraud Management:
* The number and speed of processors, the size of internal storage, and the number of physical servers per installation for redundancy are determined per installation and according to customer requirements.
Note: SAS Management Console and SAS BI Lineage Plug-in for SAS Management Console can also run on IBM AIX, Linux for x64, Solaris for SPARC, and Solaris for x64, in addition to Windows (32-bit and 64-bit).
Recent versions of the following web browsers are supported:
The All-UNIX/Linux option is for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. This version is available in SAS Fraud Management 3.2 and later versions. A customer who selects this option would expect to allocate several (physical) p-series servers or reduce this footprint by implementing a larger multi-core server or servers with logical partitions and shared memory.
The requirements regarding disk space, CPUs, and real and virtual storage depend on the size of the workload. SAS works with prospective customers to define the expected customer workload and corresponding hardware resources needed. This process is a standard part of any SAS Fraud Management deployment project.
