Install Center is a good place to start as it covers administration as well:

Hi @sbunny364,

Apart from the advised install center link I would like you to browse few free webinars which I feel are a great start for admin tasks, specially by Anja.

You could find posts related to them under admin in our communities. Most of them are on demand so just play it when ever you have time.

Good luck!

Thanks,
Anand!

Best place to start - in fact, it's my primary SAS link:

 

https://support.sas.com/en/sas-administrators.html

 

From here you will have links to everything you should require.

 

Plus keep asking questions in the Administration and Deployment community.

 

Question: Are you looking to install, administer, both?

Sunny,

 

I think a better way to ask will be for you to clarify what responsibilities will you be doing, including any/all of SAS installation, SAS configuration, SAS administratrion, SAS user support, etc, and for who - the company you work for, a customer, etc.

Hi Sunny,

 

the following includes a lot of information, but describes the way going from novice to advanced,

from install, to first steps, to ongoing maintenance, etc.

Take a look at: Self-Study

 

Pick and choose from the topics that are of the most interest for you.

Enjoy learning admin, its a super cool subject 🙂

 

Best

Anja
