How to check SAS Share is licensed or not from sid file

manial — Tue, 19 Jun 2018 14:20:35 GMT

Hi,

How can i check if we have license for SAS Share or not.

Because i am not able to start sas share service from windows services and just want to check if we have license for sas share or not.

Also we are not able to find sas share in sid file nor in the output of setinit procedure.

Br,

It is PRODNUM010 and PRODNUM035 in the setinit file, which is part of the sid.

Thanks for quick reply!!
I have checked in the sid file and setinit output but couldn't find these two, PRODNUM010 and PRODNUM035, mentioned there.

So if only these two products number linked to sas-share then we may not have license for sas share.

proc setinit;run; -> what's licensed

proc product_status;run; -> what's installed.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion!

Ran the proc product_status, didn't found SAS/Share there.

Found SAS/Connect and others but not SAS/Share.

Best Regards,

Hello @manial,

I think that, thanks to @Reeza and @Kurt_Bremser tips, you could conclude you do not have license for SAS Share at this moment, hence you would need to request the module to your SAS Contracts manager , if you would like to use it.

Yes thanks to both @Reeza and @KurtBremser got the required information that licensing and product installation needs to be looked at.

Have connected with sas support after suggested testing and verification, as previous license was having this product also the product num was also mentioned there. Looking into the SAS order.

Thanks,
