The SAS
Deployment Wizard performs two major functions. Using inputs that
you have provided, the wizard installs SAS, and then initially configures
SAS. There are many components to a SAS Intelligence Platform deployment,
but if one component happens not to deploy properly, it does not mean
that you have to repeat the entire deployment. In most cases you can
continue with the rest of the SAS deployment, and later troubleshoot
the component that failed to deploy.
If you encounter a configuration
error while running the SAS Deployment Wizard, follow these steps:
-
Read the configuration
alert box and, leaving the alert box displayed, take any steps that
it suggests.
-
After you have performed
the steps, go back to the configuration alert box and click
Retry.
-
If the configuration
alert box re-appears and you are unable to resolve the issue, keep
the deployment wizard as it is, and contact SAS Technical Support.
There can be situations
when the configuration failed before the SAS Deployment Manager is
properly configured. When this occurs, running the deployment manager
is not an option. In these situations, you must do the following:
-
Stop the metadata server (if it
is running).
-
Restore the most recent backup
of the metadata repository and repository manager that you created
before deploying.
-
Restore the most recent backup
of the Web application server directories.
-
If any servers that failed to configure
were installed as services on Windows, manually remove their service
definitions.
For more information,
see your Microsoft Windows documentation.
-
Manually delete the configuration
directories for the SAS components that failed to configure.
