SAS recommends using pip to install one of the supported versions of Ansible.
Oracle Linux machines require an Oracle Linux support subscription. The Ansible controller machine must be connected to the Red Hat Network. For more information about Ansible versioning, see Releases and maintenance - Ansible Documentation. Starting with Community package Ansible 4.0.0, the version of ansible-core exceeds the range of supported versions of ansible-core. SAS Viya deployment does not support versions of ansible-core later than 2.10. Ansible Community Collections include ansible-base or ansible-core versions as dependencies.įor SAS Viya deployments, the Ansible “versions” that are supported refer to Ansible Community Collections that include ansible-base 2.10 and earlier. The engine package is referred to as either “ansible-base” (for Ansible 3.x, engine version 2.10) or as “ansible-core” (for Ansible 4.x and later, engine version 2.11 and later). The project now consists of two separately versioned sets of components: the engine with supporting components (called “ansible-base” or “ansible-core”) and Ansible Collections, which are maintained by the Ansible Community and partners (called “additions”). IMPORTANT: Starting with Ansible 3.0, Red Hat has restructured the Ansible project and changed the way that the tools are packaged and downloaded. SAS Viya requires Ansible version 2.8 through 3.0. SAS/ACCESS to Google BigQuery, SAS Analytics for IoT, SAS Assortment Planning, SAS Business Orchestration Services, SAS Demand Planning, SAS Event Stream Processing, SAS Financial Planning, SAS Fraud Management, SAS Intelligence and Investigation Management, SAS Markdown Optimization, and SAS Visual Investigator. The following SAS Viya products cannot be installed on Linux on Power: SAS Viya GPU support extends to Linux on Power. The required kernel version 4.14 is provided by the Linux kernel-alt packages. SAS Viya 3.5 has been compiled specifically for the POWER9 architecture. Linux on the Power Architecture requires Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 with the kernel version 4.14. These same policies also apply to Oracle Enterprise Linux 6.x. If you are running SAS Viya on one of those operating systems, contact SAS Technical Support before you attempt to update, upgrade, or otherwise redeploy your software. However, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 has reached Extended Life Phase, which means that “Software maintenance, new bug fixes and security errata will no longer be provided for the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 product family,” according to Red Hat.īecause a supported version of Ansible is not readily available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x, new deployments of SAS Viya 3.5 are no longer supported on those operating systems.
SAS Viya 3.5 previously offered full support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.7 and later within 6.x. Limited Support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x *** SUSE Linux is not supported for SAS Business Orchestration Services, SAS Fraud Management, SAS Visual Investigator, or SAS Intelligence and Investigation Management deployments. The February 2021 release of SAS Viya 3.5 or a later release is required. See Supported Products for the full list. ** Individual product support for operating systems later than Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.x is limited at this time. * Oracle Linux is not supported for SAS Fraud Management.
In a multi-machine deployment, SAS recommends that all server machines have the same version of Linux, including the distribution, release, and patch level. Supported Distributions of Linux (for 64-bit x86) See for the statement of SAS’s support for operating systems other than those listed here. SAS Support for Alternative Operating Systems Apple OS X 10.10 and later is supported for SAS Viya user interfaces that support Apple Safari.įor information about web browsers and mobile platforms that are supported for client access, see the SAS Viya Support for Web Browsers page.
UNIX 64-bit and Windows 64-bit operating systems are supported.
Because SAS software is not installed on this machine, the requirements are minimal. Deploy the software on the operating system that you selected when you placed your software order.Įnd users can also access the product user interfaces for SAS Viya applications from a desktop computer, using a supported web browser. SAS Viya software can be deployed on the operating systems that are listed on this page.
