Configuring a UUID Generator<br />

Currently, only SAS on Windows can generate unique UUIDs. The UUID Generator Daemon (UUIDGEND)<br />

generates unique UUIDs for SAS sessions that execute on hosts without native UUID generation support.<br />

Installing UUIDGEND<br />

If your SAS application executes on a platform other than Windows and your application requires unique UUIDs,<br />

install UUIDGEND and identify its location (see SAS UUIDGENDHOST and UUIDCOUNT options documentation)<br />

to your executing SAS application. If you install UUIDGEND on a host other than Windows, you need to contact SAS<br />

Technical Support to obtain a UUID node. The UUID node must be unique per UUIDGEND installation in order for<br />

UUIDGEND to guarantee truly unique UUIDs.<br />

Configuring the Spawner for UUIDGEND<br />

UUIDGEND is implemented in the spawner. You can execute a separate spawner to support UUIDGEND only, or<br />

you can update an existing spawner instance to support UUIDGEND along with its sasServer definitions.<br />

UUIDGEND is configured by the sasSpawner object class sasUUIDPort/sasUUIDService and sasUUIDNode (when it<br />

is not installed on Windows) attributes. All other sasSpawner definition requirements must be met.<br />

For an example of the metadata needed to define a spawner for UUID generation, refer to the UUID Generator<br />

configuration file example.<br />
