The initial configuration
of the grid monitoring server is performed by the SAS Deployment Wizard.
However, a SAS grid administrator might need to modify the existing
grid metadata or add new grid metadata definitions.
A SAS administrator
performs these steps to specify or modify the required and optional
properties as metadata for the Grid Monitoring Server:
-
In SAS Management Console,
open the metadata repository that contains the metadata for the SAS
Grid Server.
-
In the navigation tree,
select
Server Manager.
-
Find the metadata object
for the Grid Monitoring Server.
-
Right-click the metadata
object for the Grid Monitoring Server, and then select
Properties.
-
In the
Properties window
for the Grid Monitoring Server, click the
Options tab.
-
Here are the fields
on the
Options tab:
Provider
the grid middleware
provider. This value is Platform. This value is used to communicate
with the grid control server.
Module Name
specifies the shared
library name or the class name of the support plug-in for Platform
Suite for SAS. Leave this field blank unless directed otherwise by
SAS Technical Support.
Options
the options needed
by the grid monitoring server to connect to the grid server.
RTM Host Name
specifies the URL for
the RTM host.
-
After you complete the
field entries, click
OK to save the changes
and close the
Grid Monitoring Server Properties window.
-
In the display area
(right side) on SAS Management Console, right-click the
Connection object
for the Grid Monitoring Server, and then select
Properties.
-
In the
Properties window
for the Grid Monitoring Server Connection, click the
Options tab.
Here are the fields on this tab:

domain that is used for connections to the server. This value is the
authentication domain of the machine that Grid Management Services
(GMS) is running on.
