Updating the Service Architecture in SAS Environment Manager 2.5

If you have not modified your service architecture configuration, the SAS Environment Manager 2.5 update process will update your service architecture without you needing to make any changes. However, if you modified your original service architecture, you must make these changes when updating:
  • If you stored content in the metadata folders that were used by the report center, the update process exported that content as a SAS package file, then deleted the folders. To recover the content, use the metadata import wizard in SAS Management Console to import SASEVProductsFolderBackup.spk, which is in the SASPackages subdirectory under the update backup directory. The update backup directory is named \emi-framework_date_time, where date and time correspond to the date and time at which the update process began.
  • If you used the SAS Management Console Configuration Manager plug-in to change the service architecture configuration properties, those changes might have been overwritten. Review the current configuration settings and make changes where needed.
  • If you used a method such as soft link or NFS mounts to locate the data mart libraries at a location other than the default, you must review the updated data mart to determine whether the data was successfully moved. If it was not moved, re-establish the redirection and run the ugipInit script to restructure the data.
  • If you modified any of the LIBNAME statements in the service architecture autoexec files, those changes were overwritten, so you will need to make the corresponding changes in the new autoexec files. You can refer to the old files, which are located in the backup directory, but you cannot replace the new files with the old files. Doing so will cause the service architecture to not work.
