Switch workspace server to UTF from WCYRILLIC

[DmitryKaptur]

Hi, guys.

I need some help.

I add additional Workspace Servers using this manual https://support.sas.com/resources/papers/AddingAdditionalSASWorkspaceServerstoSupportMultipleEncodin....

At final, I change the file WorkspaceServer_usermods.sh in new app workspace server directory(/sas/SASConfig/Lev1/SASAppUTF/WorkspaceServer) add  "export SAS_COMMAND=$SASROOT/bin/sas_u8" and restart object spawner. 

Now the file is :

#!/bin/sh -p
#
# WorkspaceServer_usermods.sh
#
# This script extends WorkspaceServer.sh. Add local environment variables
# to this file so they will be preserved.
#

USERMODS_OPTIONS=
export SAS_COMMAND=$SASROOT/bin/sas_u8

But it doesn't work, when I run 

proc options option=encoding;
run;

The result is ENCODING=WCYRILLIC.

I check the path /sas/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/bin, file sas_u8 is exist.

The usual place to change this would be in your SAS workspace server context configuration. For example if changing SASApp then modify:

<SASHome>/sas/config/lev1/sasapp/sasv9_usermods.cfg

Add the line -ENCODING UTF-8
