When you receive your SAS^® Scalable Performance Data Server^® 4.53 software and installed it, the start-up scripts automatically populate the correct license path and name. Beginning with SAS 9.3, all SAS license files are located in the SASHOME/licenses directory. To renew your SPD Server 4.53 license, follow the appropriate instructions for your platform.

For Windows environments

Edit the SASHOME\SASScalablePerformanceDataServer\4.53\site\spdsnsrv.bat file so that the –licensefile option specifies the name of the new license file. To use the new license, restart the SPD Server.

For UNIX environments

Edit the SASHOME/SASScalablePerformanceDataServer/4.53/site/rc.spds start-up script so that the LICFILE variable specifies the name of the new license file. To use the new license, restart the SPD Server

Note: You should not change the licensing information unless you are logged in with the user ID that performed the SAS SPD Server software installation.
