SAS Viya 3.5 Linux system assessment error

woo — Wed, 01 Sep 2021 15:45:04 GMT

Hello. We are deploying Viya 3.5 on Linux (AWS). This is going to be simple SMP deployment (all-in-one AWS instance). We have completed pre-requisite setup. However, when we run below assessment run, receive error,

# ansible-playbook system-assessment.yml

TASK [host-verification-x64_redhat_linux_6_yum : Perform disk space check]**********

There is not enough disk space on host, DeployTarget, to deploy all of the software packages for group(s): AdminServucesm ............../opt/sas/viya has 6364276 k available and 30408704 k is needed to install.

However, we are not deploying SAS Viya 3.5 under default path, which is /opt/sas/viya. Instead we are re-rerouting under "/test/opt/sas/viya"

How are you re-routing this? The disk space check uses the SAS_DEPLOYMENT_ROOT variable to determine which path to check, which appears to come from group_vars/all.

$ head group_vars/all
---
# The values for the variables in this file have been optimized to produce a working deployment.
# Do not alter the values in this file without the guidance of SAS Technical Support, a SAS consultant, or any other SAS representative.

# The root location where all things sas are placed.
SASROOT: /opt/sas

# The root of the Viya deployment.
SAS_DEPLOYMENT_ROOT: "{{ SASROOT }}/{{ DEPLOYMENT_ID }}"

$ grep disk.space roles/host-verification-x64_redhat_linux_6-yum/tasks/main.yml -A10 -m1
- name: Perform disk space check
disk_space_check:
sas_vars: "{{ sas_vars }}"
path: "{{ SAS_DEPLOYMENT_ROOT }}"
hostname: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
group_names: "{{ group_names }}"
register: disk_space_result
become: true
become_user: root
ignore_errors: True

Thanks @ gwootton.

I was not aware of that file and never touched it but seems i will need to update that "all" file for sasroot. Will update, rerun and update this post. Thanks again.

I would mention I'm not sure that adjusting the installation path is supported. The documentation for installing Viya 3.5 does not discuss this.
