Ability to run sas prog on remote server using SSH

deleted_user — Wed, 20 May 2009 02:34:28 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to run a sas prog on a remote server using ssh.

I have got the command that I am using in the below paragraph. With it, I was able to run shell scripts but when I tried 'sas' it errored out. I have got my keys exchanged so when I say ssh serverA I automatically connect to my remote server. (Note: All the commands in the quotations run one by one when they hit a semi-colon).

When I run the below I get an error ksh: sas: not found.

ssh serverA "cd /directory/sas; pwd;ls; sas avi.sas"

Any help would be appreciated. I was thinking to do this in the above fashion. If there are any other suggestions on how to run a sas job on a remote server, please enlighten me.

Thanks,

Cool_avi

Hi

Use ./sas avi.sas command.

Hi Cool_avi
to run sas in batch mode you need

'full path to sas ' 'fill path to you program'

root directory of sas - /sas
you program in /Cool_avi/avi.sas

to run program avi.sas
/sas/sas /Cool_avi/avi.sas
----------------------------------------------
or
cd /sas
./sas /Cool_avi/avi.sas
-----------------------------------------------------
or
cd /Cool_avi
/sas/sas avi.sas
----------------------------------------------

Thanks Lu :). That worked for me. I had to specify the whole qualified path to SAS before my script. I appreciate the help.
