webwork on SAS Grid

SDV — Thu, 10 Nov 2016 15:34:33 GMT

We have SAS Studio deployed in a SAS Grid environment that uses grid launched workspace server sessions. I read in the admin guide that interactive mode uses multiple workspace server sessions and that webwork is the default library used for interactive mode.

Does this mean that the webwork library needs to be configured to reside on a shared file system accessible from each grid node? I think it does, but can someone confirm?

... and the answer is ...

Yes. Webwork needs to be set to a location that is shared to each grid node when using grid launched workspace servers.

Just FYI, here is some more information on webwork.

It is the default library when using Studio's interactive mode. In interactive mode, each program gets a workspace server session, and all of the workspace server sessions from your Studio session share the webwork.
