SAS: GCONFID Integration

[YannCoderre]

They is a need for the StatCan SAS GCONFID generalized system.

SAS GCONFID external package can be found here:
[\stmcflr-\fld6filer\Team0162\Public\G-Confid\G-CONFID107003EWINX6494M5-M7

There are a few things to consider:

• GCONFID needs to have its path integrated in the SAS image .cfg files on SAS bootup
• GCONFID files will need to be copied into the workspace to be accessible when clients need to use it.

At this point, SAS Tech can only provide us the external package of GCONFID. The external GCONFID is missing a few fucntionality / macros. We will need to discuss at a later date with the Statcan SAS Tech to see when we could get the INTERNAL GCONFID

The external Linux version of G-Confid 1.07.003 can be found at: \stmcflr-sasfs61\gensys\G-Confid\SAS94M7\Linux\v1.07.003_external\english\G-CONFID107003ELNX6494M7.zip

#1 Create Directory

1. /usr/local/SASHome
2. /usr/local/SASHome/gensys
3. /usr/local/SASHome/gensys/G-CONFID107003ELNX6494M7

#2 Copy file under /usr/local/SASHome/gensys/G-CONFID107003ELNX6494M7
We will need to add the path to the GCONFID files in the following configuration (.cfg) files:

#3 Edit /usr/local/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/sasv9.cfg

• Add -PATH ("GCONFIG_PATH\G-CONFID107003ELNX6494M7")

Note: Extra INFO

• /usr/local/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/sasv9.cfg
• /usr/local/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/nls/u8/sasv9.cfg
• /usr/local/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/sasv9_local.cfg
• /usr/local/SASHome/studioconfig/workspaceserver/sasv9.cfg
• /usr/local/SASHome/studioconfig/workspaceserver/sasv9_usermods.cfg

** Can we have rw-rw-rw the the above files for the POC phase

Solution:
added Path to sasv9_local.cfg without brackets
-PATH "/usr/local/SASHome/gensys/G-CONFID107003ELNX6494M7"
