Migrating to 9.2 – Environmental Scenarios

                             Single Deployment – often Type A
                             Multiple – Dev / Test / Prod
                                         • Multiple environments on one hardware platform
                                         • Multiple hardware platforms

Dev / Test / Prod in Business Analytics
                             Very different from traditional operational
                              systems
                             IT use Dev/Test for data management &
                              production system creation & maintenance.
                             Business users create new content (reports,
                              analyses, & ad-hoc data management) in
                              production environment as required.
                                         • May use folder level security to manage status.
                             Multiple “applications” hosted on a single
                              platform.

Why use migration tools to migrate content?

                             Most efficient method for upgrading from SAS
                              9.1.3 to SAS 9.2.
                                         • Upgrades entire system at one time
                                         • Produces additional reports to understand changes in
                                           security
                             Preserves customizations made in 9.1.3.
                             Checks whether software is at the required
                              baseline and supported by the automated tools.

Additional steps after using Tools

                             Portal content may need adjusting
                                         • Custom themes need to be redefined
                                         • Custom web applications need to be updated
                             OLAP cubes need to be rebuilt
                             Custom plug-ins need to be modified
                             Manual changes to configuration to exploit 9.2
                              platform enhancements
                                         • Includes validation of behavior
                             Validation & Rollout

Perform a migration using promotion tools

                             Promotion is the movement of selected content
                              from a source system to an already configured
                              target system.




Copyright © 2009, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.   Company Confidential - For Internal Use Only
Why use promotion tools to migrate content?

                             System configuration in 9.2 will be different
                                         • Changing hardware
                                         • Different server configurations
                             Lots of “garbage” content in the existing 9.1.3
                              system
                             Haven’t fully utilized the platform, so minimal
                              content involved
                             Want to try out functionality and/or validate in
                              bite size portions


Copyright © 2009, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved.   Company Confidential - For Internal Use Only
Why not use promotion tools only?

                             May be more time intensive
                                         • Requires manual movement of content and it is still
                                           difficult to change the folder structure
                                         • Order of promoting objects is important
                             Only a subset of metadata content is supported
                                         • No environment metadata – users, groups, ACTs,
                                           servers
                                         • Extra work for OLAP, Portal
                             No automatic security comparison reports

So, how long will a migration take?
                             Migration process consists of 4 main phases

                                                             Assess the state of the current environment
                                                             Identify what is “outside the SAS box”
                                                             Determine the hardware deployment


                                                             Create software depot and plan file
                                                             Backup the current environment
                                                             Setup target environment


                                                             Upgrade to SAS 9.2 using SASDW with either migration
                                                              or promotion tools
                                                             Implement customizations, if needed


                                                             Validate the new environment
                                                             Resynchronize content
                                                             Rollout SAS 9.2 access to end users

                             The actual execution of the migration is not the
                              main portion of time.

So… How long should I plan for a migration?

                             It depends on
                                         • Product mix
                                         • Usage scenario
                                         • Environmental scenario
                             Total Time (Plan- Rollout)
                                         • “Happy Path” (simple environment) – 5 to 10 days


                                         • Complex environment – 4 to 6 weeks


                                         • Gnarly environment – 2 to 3 months

Planning Objectives

                             Document the 9.1.3 environment
                             Set goals for the 9.2 environment
                             Choose the best approach for upgrading
                                         • Start over installing SAS 9.2 out-of-the-box and
                                           promote selected content from 9.1.3
                                         • Migrate content using the automated migration tools
                                         • Or, use a combination of these approaches

                                  Migration is something that you will only do once.

                                   have done it before (many times).

Migrating to SAS 9.2 - Summary
     Does take effort over a relatively short time
     Preserves existing content & hardware
     More functionality,
      maintainability.
     Baseline for future

Why use promotion tools to migrate content?  System configuration in 9.2 will be different • Changing hardware • Different server configurations  Lots of “garbage” content in the existing 9.1.3 system  Haven’t fully utilized the platform, so minimal content involved  Want to try out functionality and/or validate in bite size portions Copyright © 2009, SAS Institute Inc.

  • 22. Why not use promotion tools only?  May be more time intensive • Requires manual movement of content and it is still difficult to change the folder structure • Order of promoting objects is important  Only a subset of metadata content is supported • No environment metadata – users, groups, ACTs, servers • Extra work for OLAP, Portal  No automatic security comparison reports Copyright © 2009, SAS Institute Inc.
