initial configuration
When you install SAS, the initial configuration starts a number of download tasks. These will fail on a machine that is not connected to the Internet, resulting in log errors like the following:
...
There are also a number of SCAP Data Sources data sources that are registered by default. You must download these on a machine that is connected to the Internet, copy them to the correct folders on the AMS, and then re-run the registration tasks that failed during the initial configuration as described previously.
...
If downloading the content manually, get the content (typically .zip files) from the locations specified above and carry to the AMS Then TMS. Then unzip to the %ProgramData%\Arellia\ScapContent. The zipped content should will create its own folder under the ScapContent folder and place any files and sub-folders in that directory.

Importing Profiles
Running the console and choosing the Profiles tab will take you to the Download Profiles view. It will look like the following: [[What are you supposed to do with the profiles? mp 5/5/15]]
The download profiles page shows the links but they will fail to import. You need to perform the downloads on a system that does have internet access and then copy the downloaded files to a location accessible from your Arellia Console. Once the files are available you then use the Import Profile action on the Profiles tab (bottom left). Choose the profile content file and import.
- There is a page on the Arellia Data Portal that shows these links. See View Arellia Checklist. Or you can go direct to the various official sites.
- To set expectations - profile imports can take a while, whether connected to the internet or not - on the order of an hour for a handful of profiles.
