How to check server where SAS DI is working on?

Peter_Wine — Thu, 29 Mar 2018 11:52:47 GMT

Hi All,

How can I figure out on which server SAS DI currently works?

In my case SAS uses several servers which are chosen randomly and I don't know which one is currently used.

I was trying to run code:

%put _GLOBAL;

but there is no sever name given by it.

Regards,

Piotr

Assuming that you're talking about a Grid environment the following could help.

@Patrick thanks for answer but it doesn't give answer I need.

I'd like to get the same info which is printed by command:

%put _GLOBAL_;

answer should be like this:

GLOBAL _SASHOSTNAME 'server_name'

Or why when I run command

"%put _GLOBAL_;"

option

"GLOBAL _SASHOSTNAME 'server_name' "

is not printed?

Regards,

Peter

If you don't get with %put _GLOBAL_; or %put _all_; what you need then what's the problem to get the info in other ways like.

%put %sysfunc(grdsvc_getname(task1));

Thanks:

%put _all_;

works fine.
