Installing the Communication Component on UNIX

Installing the Communication Component on UNIX

Install the Communication component with a user account that is authorized to start SAS and access the SAS data that you want to read or write. PowerExchange for SAS uses the user account to access the SAS data.
Perform the following steps to install the Communication component on UNIX:
  1. Run the installation script from the installation CD.
  2. Choose a directory where you want to install the Communication component.
  3. Follow the instructions and choose
    Install SAS Communication Component
    .
    The Communication component is installed.
The following libraries are installed with the spiserver binary:
libicuuc.<ext>.34
libicui18n.<ext>.34
libicudata.<ext>.34
where, <ext> is replaced by the shared library extension for the UNIX operating system. For example,
libicuuc.so.34
 for Linux.
You need to add the libraries in the system library path after installing the Communication component on UNIX in one of the following ways:
  • Add the SPI Server installation directory to the library search path.
    For example,
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/PowerExchange‘ForSAS:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  • Move the library files to a directory in the library search path.
    For example,
    //usr/local/lib
