We have the following implementation:
Metadata Cluster (3 servers), MidTier (2) and Compute TIer (Grid - 4 nodes).
We have installed and Configured SAS Environment Manager following the "Installing and Configuring SAS Environment Manager in a SAS Grid Environment".
All seems to be functioning correctly. The agents are running on each node and environment manager sees all the agents.
Now, we want to initialize the service architecture Framework follwing the "Initializing SAS Envrionemnt Manager Service Architecture Framework for SAS 9.4M3" instructions.
However, step2 : Validate Framework fails
Here's the info:
Service Architecture Validation - Mon Jun 20 11:54:16 CDT 2016
Starting level 1 validation...
Level 1 validation completed with 0 error(s)
Starting extended level 2 validation (this could take a while)...
Level 2 validation completed with 1 error(s) in 34.104 sec
Service Architecture validation completed with 1 error(s)
Errors:
1) The SAS Environment Manager Agent is not running.
However, the (modified) grid agents are running (not the default one).
We feel that the failure is do to the "standard scripts" not working in our grid environemnt (won't be the first time we've encountered this). So the question I have to any grid administrator, is what changes / modifications/ hoops did you have to do to get service architecture framework working in a Grid environment?
Thx for your help
Hi I just happend to fix this issue yesterday.
If you are using windows servers ,pls do the following
To work around this problem, check the performance counters:
Best ,
Thanks for the solution. However, we are using Linux servers and I'm not sure if there is anything equivalent in Linux. We can check with our root admins.
Sai,
Did you work with Tech support on this? If so could you provide us with a track. They seem to be sending us down a rabbit hole on this and if we could point to a similiar solution it might help.
Thx
I'm not sure if this will work for you but I was able to get the validation and emi scripts to work by copying the emi-framework folder to the $SAS_config/Web/SASEnvironmentManager/grid/$grid_node folder at the same level as the agent folder.
