This SAS note provides information about solution support for Windows to Windows migration, UNIX to UNIX migration, and the Update Host Name References tool.

In the following table, the Windows to Windows Migration Release Available column lists the release that each solution supports when you move from any Microsoft Windows operating environment to any other Windows environment, using the automated migration tools (SAS^® Migration Utility and SAS^® Deployment Wizard) to upgrade from SAS 9.1.3 to SAS 9.2.

The UNIX to UNIX Migration Release Available column lists the release that each solution supports when you move from any UNIX environment to any other UNIX environment, using the automated migration tools (SAS Migration Utility and SAS Deployment Wizard) to upgrade from SAS 9.1.3 to SAS 9.2.

The Supporting Releases for the Update Host Name References Tool column provides the release that each solution supports in the Update Host Name References option in the SAS^® Deployment Manager. Beginning with the third maintenance release for SAS 9.2 (TS2M3), the SAS Deployment Manager includes an option called Update Host Name References. This option provides an automated way to update references to server host names that are in your SAS deployment. The Update Host Name References tool is supported by only certain SAS applications and solutions.

Note: For SAS 9.3 and later, all supported SAS solutions and products should support the Update Host Name References tool.

The following table lists product releases that support (or will support) the Update Host Name References tool. If you have an earlier release of one of these products or if you have a product that is listed as not supported, then you should not use the Update Host Name References tool to update the machine names that are in your deployment. In such situations, using the tool might cause the product to malfunction.

For more information about migration, see the SAS^® Intelligence Platform: 9.1.3 to 9.2 Migration Guide.

For more information about the Update Host Name References tool, see the SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide, Second Edition.
