How to change location of sasuser.v94 based on userid

[doq]

Hi, I have SAS Forecast Server 15.1 installed on Linux.

I would like to change the location of the user's sasuser directory (sasuser.v94) to some other location based on the user's name and I have been unable to find a reference for a username variable in the doc for doing this.

Can someone direct me as to how I can, in the local sasv9.cfg file, do something like: -sasuser /some/path/$(who am i|awk '{print $1}')

Thanks in advance, Dennis

@doq ,

To set the -SASUSER option dynamically, you can modify the /<SASHome>/SASFoundation/9.x/bin/sasenv_local file to include shell script code comparable to:

if [ ! -d /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94 ]
then
mkdir -p /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94
fi
SASV9_OPTIONS="$SASV9_OPTIONS -sasuser /newpath/$USER/sasuser.v94"
export SASV9_OPTIONS
