Dear fellow SAS Administrators,
I would like to get your inputs on how to setup UNIX/LINUX environment in order to make SAS admin's life easier.
The followings are a few examples,
1. setup environment variables:
for example,
export SAS94HOME=/opt/sas/sas94
export LEV1=/opt/sas/config/Lev1
2. setup alias for long UNIX/LINUX commands:
for example,
alias lev1="cd /opt/sas/config/Lev1"
alias sasmc="/opt/sas/sas94/SASManagementConsole/9.4/sasmc"
3. others ....
The above are just a few examples, so that you know what I really want to ask in this thread 🙂
I sincerely appreaciate if you could share ideas and best practices on how to setup your environment to make things convenient !
It's even better if you could give some real examples.
Thanks in advance,
Alex

How set up things in a nice way you need experience, try to interact with fellow colleges and read papers and posts at this site as well.
Try to narrow down your question.

Hi LinusH,
Thanks for the reply and the suggestions to narrow down the questions. Let me "narrow down" into two areas:
1. Unix/Linux environment variables:
for example,
export SAS94HOME=/opt/sas/sas94
export LEV1=/opt/sas/config/Lev1
2. Unix/Linux command alias for long UNIX/LINUX commands:
for example,
alias lev1="cd /opt/sas/config/Lev1"
alias sasmc="/opt/sas/sas94/SASManagementConsole/9.4/sasmc"
I would like to see some more environment variables settings and aliases settings.
Do you think the above two areas are still not narrow enough ?
Thank you,
