Hello All, I've been perusing the SAS Environment Manager User's Guide to see what more I might be able to do with it. Something we do at the Unix command line constantly is monitor the remaining space in the directory defined by the WORK system option in sasv9.cfg. Monitoring this in Env. Manager sounded promising but it looks like this can only be done if SASWORK is set to /tmp.   The User's Guide gives an example of setting up a custom metric viewer portlet on the Env Manager dashboard, "Adding a SASWork Disk Space Metric Viewer." This metric is on the compute server SAS Home Directory 9.4, service SAS Work Directory. The attached screenshot shows the resource page in Env Manager. On our Linux installation, we've created a mount point /saswork and designated 2GB disk space to this mount point. If you look at the screenshot, you'll see that "SAS Work Directory" is defined as /tmp and I found under Tools Menu-Configure Service that the only configurable property is a shared property, "directory." I changed this property value from /tmp to /saswork but /tmp continues to be what is monitored. The shared property does not seem to be monitored.    Does someone know how to change the directory that is monitored so that I can have a useful metric to monitor in Env Manager? ... View more

Hello Folks, I've recently started upgrading our SAS installation. I'm seeing some odd behavior from SAS Enterprise Guide 8.3 (ver 8.3.0.103) where it has been upgraded on a few Windows terminal servers for testing by our business users and our support team in IT. The first thing I'd like to mention is that when I run SEG 8.3, only pre-assigned Oracle libraries are visible. When I run SEG 7.15 (still installed on the same machine) all libraries - both pre-assigned and not - are visible with a different color icon for each of the two. One (and only one) of our business users sees both pre-assigned and not pre-assigned libraries when she starts SEG 8.3. Other business users seem to see libraries presented the way I see them; pre-assigned only. The other strange thing that's going on for the "One-and-only" user is that while she sees both pre-assigned and not libraries, she doesn't see a new Oracle library that I just created whether I set it to pre-assigned or not. Other SEG 8.3 users and I can see the new library in SEG 8.3 when it is pre-assigned. When the One-and-only user starts SEG 7.15, she gets the same behavior; she sees both types of libraries but not the new library. So, the issue seems to be on the client end with SEG 8.3 rather than the metadata server.  The metadata server (and other Office Analytics servers) have been upgraded to 9.4M7. ... View more
