Set up procedure<\/h2>\n
module load apps\/binapps\/sas\/9.4\r\nmodule load apps\/binapps\/sas\/9.4tsm4\r\n<\/pre>\n
Running the application<\/h2>\n
sas\r\n<\/pre>\n
Specifying the temporary work directory<\/h3>\n
\/tmp<\/code> by default (it will create a further sub-directory in there for your current session). If the \/tmp<\/code> area is too small you can specify your own temporary directory using the -work<\/code> flag. For example, to use a directory in your home area<\/p>\nsas -work ~\/my_sas_temp\r\n #\r\n # Change to whatever directory name you require.\r\n # The directory must<\/strong> exist before you run sas!\r\n<\/pre>\n
proc options option = work;\r\nrun;\r\n<\/pre>\n
WORK=\/mnt\/iusers01\/xy01<\/em>\/mabcxyz1<\/em>\/SAS_workD6BD00018568_incline04<\/em>\r\n Specifies the libref or location of the Work library.\r\n<\/pre>\n
-memsize<\/code> flag. For example:<\/p>\nsas -memsize 8G scriptfile<\/em>\r\n<\/pre>\n
sas -memsize max scriptfile<\/em>\r\n<\/pre>\n
# Show the default amount of memory available and the max\r\nsas-report-mem.sh\r\n\r\n# Check how much memory you would have if using '-memsize 8G'\r\nsas-report-mem.sh 8G\r\n<\/pre>\n
