Migration
DATA Step Batch Server
SAS® Data Step Batch Server enables you to run SAS DATA steps and procedures in batch mode.
For any updates or hot fixes that are required before you can migrate, see the baseline requirements topic.
Messages
The server name contains
characters not compatible with target SAS version. Please remove the incompatible characters from server name
before migration.
- Correct the name of the server in the previous deployment's SAS Management Console, and run SAS Migration Utility again.
The naming convention in the SAS Management Console has changed. In SAS 9.1.3, the forward slash and backslash characters are supported in server names, but in SAS 9.2 and later these characters are not supported. Other unsupported characters in server names include control characters (e.g., tabs, newlines) and leading or trailing blanks. The name must not be greater than 60 characters, and must be specified (non-null).
