Installation Note 44716: SAS® 9.3 server configuration fails if the SVC is not in the default location

DetailsAboutRate It

During installation of SAS 9.3, the options for the SAS SVC are not added to a configuration member. To see functions for which the SAS SVC is required, see the section titled "Installing the SAS 9.3 SVC Routine" in Configuration Guide for SAS® 9.3 Foundation for z/OS®.

If you installed the SAS SVC, you must manually add one of the following options to the SITE member of your high-level-qualifier.CONFIG data set:

  • If you installed the SVC as a user SVC, use this option:
    SVC0SVC=uuu
    
    The value for uuu is the number between 200 and 255 that you chose for the SAS SVC.

  • If you installed the SVC as an ESR (Extended Service Routing) SVC, use this option:
    SVC0SVC=109
    SVC0R15=nnn
    
    The value for nnn is the routing code that you chose.

Note: If you are configuring servers using the SAS® Deployment Wizard and you did not install the SVC as an ESR SVC with the default entry code of 4, do the following:

  1. Install your software in one invocation of the SAS Deployment Wizard.
  2. Update the CONFIG members.
  3. Invoke the SAS Deployment Wizard again to configure your servers.
  4. If you are configuring a metadata server in a z/OS environment, add the same lines to the CONFIG file associated with your 64-bit SAS installation.
