Extracting Output Data Set from Cluster Node In Enterprise Miner

[dhrumil_patel]

Hello,

I ran a cluster analysis in SAS EM and would like to analyze the results further in Base SAS. In particular, I'm interested to get a column indicating cluster membership for each record in my input data set. I believe I have identified the data set to CLUS_TRAIN in my SAS EM Workspace. However, when I specify the library and attempt to view the data, I get an error in the SAS log indicating that there was a failure loading the view.

Can someone point out my error? Is there another way to get the results of the Cluster node into Base SAS?

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Dhrumil Patel

Hi Dhrumil,

You are probably missing to create a library with the exact same name as your Enterprise Miner workspace server (e.g. EMWS1, EMWS2, EMWS3, etc). The reason you have to do this is because Clus_train is a view, not a data set.

In this thread () we bounced ideas with Elisa on how to see the exported view of the Cluster node. You can create a library on base SAS or you can do as suggests and use the Save Data node

These suggestions work with any Enterprise Miner node. It's just a happy coincidence that you are doing a similar thing as !

Good luck!

Thanks Miguel. I was able to extract the data set with the "Save Data" node. Appreciate the help!
