Does anyone know of a list that descibes all the different bits and pieces that are installed? I just did my first test install for 9.3 and without selecting everything, I have 99 items listed.
Many are very obvious (like Base SAS and SAS/ETS), but many are a compete mystery to me. For example, I have no idea what "SAS Diagram Control" or "Data Step to DS2 Translator" means.
Some items are obviously associated with other "products" and some are "stand alone" applications (like SAS Management Console).
The reason I'm asking is because SAS software is installed without a plan file (using the "Install SAS Foundation and Related Software" button in the Deployment Manager), so we must select the appropriate components for each user; we license different modules in different quantities and I manage the usage counts.
My goal would be to understand which specific "products" or :"components" (or whatever they are called) should be installed for a particular user. A simple "refereence" card that described every item would be very useful. It would have been nice if clicking the little "info" icon brought up a description, but that just links to some "system requirements" pages at SAS. For example, I clicked the button next to "Report Fonts for Client" and it displayed 22 documents on various topics (not named anything about "Report Fonts").
It's probably a minor request, but I'd sure appreciate any info.
Thanks in advance, and thanks especially to SAS for creating this forum!!!
