Hi Tushar,

Thanks for your reply. Paths you have indicated that are for migration and upgradation but this helps somewhere round the clock.

I am mentioning, what i have tried for test strategy. Looking for your input.

** Mentioned notes are not specific to any client/Project, These are only assumptions, if these matches to any specific project or client document, that would be only fictitious.

· Installation and configuration of middle tier and SAS Enterprise Miner server

· Installation and configuration of SAS EM 12.1 for all desktop users with middle tier (if desktop)

· Installation and configuration for SAS management console for all user of E miner client

· SAS Enterprise Miner from 5.2 to 12.1

· Differences on installing 32 bit or on 64 bit

· SAS Management console 9.1/9.3

· Access of Admin IDs (sasadmin, sasdemo, sastrusted) for server and software

· Settings for user’s id / Local admin ids

· Unix Server, Metadata Server and other required servers

· Database access, Path and Libraries

· Configuration of SAS Enterprise miner in SAS Management console

· Data profiling (if required)

· Testing for all modules in scope for 9.1 to 9.3 for SAS Suite

· Registration of tables with SAS and Server including libraries

· User Migration (user access) from DB2 metadata link to SAS

· IDs creation, Port connection and Metadata set-up

· SAS Unix server connection with database

· Job Scheduler (if exists)

· File system paths like what and where program, database and logs

· IMR generation in case of failure

· E-mails generation in case of success or failure of job/project

Thank you again...i can assume that we are working on a same platform.....
