Can I print disk space using SAS UE via code??

Hey there, does anyone know how to print the disk space available from Code section in SAS university edition. I have been trying to do so via executing code but I have no success. And unfortunately the documentation online doesn’t seem to help too much. I am using the SAS University edition that comes with the AWS AMI. I don’t have access to the AWS terminal so I’m trying to print out disk storage capacity from within SAS itself. Is this doable ?

I used the following but it didnt work I think due to permissions issues:

filename df_list pipe "df -h /folders/myfolders/sasuser.v94";

Thanks

If that is all of your code then you need to actually read the data piped to the filename reference.

What does the log show when you submit that code?

The locally installed SAS UE (virtual machine) has XCMD disabled, so this won't work.

Just use the tool of the host operating system (e. g. Windows Explorer on Windows).

Filename PIPE statements are not supported in SAS UE
