Review SAS Deployment Tool Documents, Reports, and Logs

During configuration of SAS 9.3 the SAS automated deployment tools create various documents, reports, and logs that can help you identify any remaining configuration tasks and errors. Use the following documents to perform any manual configuration steps and correct any configuration errors:
  • Instructions.html
    contains a list of SAS manual steps that must be performed to complete your deployment. Instructions.html resides under the SAS configuration directory in the Levn/Documents subdirectory (for example: C:\SAS\Config92\Lev1\Documents).
  • DeploymentSummary.html
    contains a list of the deployment tasks performed by the SAS Deployment Wizard and a brief status for each. The deployment summary is one source for a list of all the SAS products installed and configured in addition to information such as servers started, Web applications built, and Web applications deployed. DeploymentSummary.html resides under the SAS configuration directory in the Levn/Documents subdirectory (for example: C:\SAS\Config\Lev1\Documents).
  • ConfigurationErrors.html
    contains a list of configuration errors that require further attention. ConfigurationErrors.html resides under the SAS configuration directory in the Levn/Documents subdirectory (for example: C:\SAS\Config\Lev1\Documents).
  • UpdateInstructions.html
    contains a list of SAS manual steps that must be performed to complete adding maintenance to your deployment. UpdateInstructions.html resides under the SAS configuration directory in the Levn/Documents subdirectory (for example: C:\SAS\Config92\Lev1\Documents).
  • Configuration logs (as needed)
    provide a finer list of errors for each SAS component that the SAS Deployment Wizard migrates and configures. There is one log file for each SAS component. The configuration logs reside under the SAS configuration directory in the Levn/Logs/Configure subdirectory (for example: C:\SAS\Config\Lev1\Logs\Configure).
  • SDW_YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS.log
    logs SAS Deployment Wizard messages, which can be used for general troubleshooting. The deployment wizard log is written to the following path:
    • Windows:
      \Users\user\AppData\Local\SAS\SASDeploymentWizard
    • Windows (Windows XP and earlier):
      \Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\SAS\SASDeploymentWizard
    • UNIX:
      home-directory/.SASAppData/SASDeploymentWizard
  • SDM_YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS.log
    logs SAS Deployment Manager messages, which can be used for general troubleshooting. The deployment manager log is written to the following path:
    • Windows:
      \Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\SAS\SASDeploymentWizard\9.3
    • Windows (Vista only):
      \Users\user\AppData\Local\SAS\SASDeploymentWizard
    • UNIX:
      home-directory/.SASAppData/SASDeploymentWizard
