The definition of UUIDGEND is contained in a setup configuration file
that you specify when you invoke the object spawner. This configuration
file identifies the port that listens for UUID requests, and, in operating
environments other than Windows, the configuration file also identifies
the UUID node. If you install UUIDGEND in an operating environment
other than Windows, contact SAS Technical Support (http://support.sas.com/techsup/contact/) to obtain a UUID node. The
UUID node must be unique for each UUIDGEND installation in order for
UUIDGEND to guarantee truly unique UUIDs.
Here is an example of
a UUIDGEND setup configuration file for an operating environment other
than Windows:
#
## Define our UUID Generator Daemon. Since this UUIDGEND is
## executing on a UNIX host, we contacted SAS Technical
## Support to get the specified sasUUIDNode.
#
dn: sasSpawnercn=UUIDGEND,sascomponent=sasServer,cn=SAS,o=ABC Inc,c=US
objectClass: sasSpawner
sasSpawnercn: UUIDGEND
sasDomainName: unx.abc.com
sasMachineDNSName: medium.unx.abc.com
sasOperatorPassword: myPassword
sasOperatorPort: 6340
sasUUIDNode: 0123456789ab
sasUUIDPort: 6341

Here is an example of
a UUIDGEND setup configuration file for Windows:
#
## Define our UUID Generator Daemon. Since this UUIDGEND is
## executing in a Windows operating environment, we do not need to specify
## the sasUUIDNode.
#
dn: sasSpawnercn=UUIDGEND,sascomponent=sasServer,cn=SAS,o=ABC Inc,
c=US
objectClass: sasSpawner
sasSpawnercn: UUIDGEND
sasDomainName: wnt.abc.com
sasMachineDNSName: little.wnt.abc.com
sasOperatorPassword: myPassword
sasOperatorPort: 6340
sasUUIDPort: 6341
