IOM Bridge
Using SAS Management Console to Define Servers
The SAS Management Console Server Manager provides a graphical user interface that allows you to create or modify a definition for the following servers that use an IOM Bridge connection:
- SAS Workspace Server
- SAS Stored Process Server
- SAS OLAP Server
- SAS Metadata Server (only for replication and promotion to other metadata servers. See the
SAS Management Console: User's Guide
for detailed instructions about how to promote and replicate repositories.)
For details about using SAS Management Console, from the SAS Management Console menu bar, select Help  Help on SAS Management Console. For more information about the fields in the New Server Wizard, click Help from within the wizard.
Before you begin defining servers, you must have the following:
- a metadata profile for connecting to a metadata repository. For details about setting up this profile, see the
SAS Management Console: User's Guide.
- an understanding of the server metadata structure. For an overview of SAS Application Servers and logical server groupings, see Planning the Metadata.
- the appropriate login, user, and group definitions for your server configuration. For details, see Security Metadata and the Security section.
Note: If you want a spawner to start the servers, after you define your servers you must define a spawner and designate which servers the spawner will start. If you subsequently define additional servers, you must modify the spawner and designate those additional servers that you want the spawner to start.
To define an IOM Bridge connection using SAS Management Console:
Start SAS Management Console and connect to a metadata repository. Choose the appropriate scenario for defining your server:
Defining a New Server and New Logical Server in a New SAS Application Server
To define a new server, logical server, and SAS Application Server:
From the SAS Management Console navigation tree, select Server Manager, then select Actions New Server from the menu bar. The New Server Wizard appears. A list of resource templates is displayed. Select the SAS Application Server. Click Next. Enter the Name and Description. The name you provide will be the name of the SAS Application Server. Click Next. Verify that the Minor Version Number, Major Version Number, Software Version. and the Vendor are correct. Click Next. A list of defined server resource templates is displayed. If your server type is not displayed, click Cancel. Select the type of server you want to define. The type you choose will be the type of the first logical server and server in the SAS Application Server definition. For example, if you select workspace server as the server type, the SAS Application Server will contain a logical workspace server which in turn contains a workspace server. Click Next. Select Custom and click Next. Verify that the Minor Version Number, Major Version Number, Software Version, and the Vendor are correct.
For SAS Workspace Servers or SAS Stored Process Servers:

Select the type of server you want to define. The type that you select will be the type of logical server and server defined. Click Next. Select Custom and click Next. Enter the Name and Description. The name you provide will be the name of the server. Click Next. Verify that the Minor Version Number, Major Version Number, Software Version, and the Vendor are correct.
