The tools for process monitoring are different across different operating systems, so it is important to know which operating system your SAS server is implemented on.

You can, of course, set

in all your programs and then study the logs.

SAS server installations include many tools, not just Enterprise Guide. One of those is a web interface called SAS Environment Manager, a dashboard that monitors CPU, memory and disk space collectively across all SAS users.

Also if you are looking to upgrade your SAS installation hardware and probably software, then I highly recommend seeking expert advice. SAS provide a free SAS server sizing service which is most likely available through your SAS Account Manager.
