Hi, I'm importing 300GB csv file by using SAS with sas studio.
I import csv file successfully. But after importing csv file, my C drive capacity has increase a lot.
Does SAS save some temporary file, during importing? Or is there anything something wrong..?
I'm SAS newbie, please help me....
SAS will store files created during a SAS session in library WORK if no other library defined explicitly (=two level table name).
SAS will also create temporary files during processing like a Proc Sort in the utilloc destination.
WORK gets deleted when you terminate your SAS Session (like closing your Studio session).
Files in UTILLOC get deleted once the creating process doesn't need them anymore.
Where WORK and UTILLOC point to depends on your SAS installation.
Execute below. The SAS Log will then tell you where such files get stored physically.
proc options option=WORK;
run;
proc options option=UTILLOC;
run;
Since SAS Studio is a web application which usually runs on a remote server, no additional space on your Windows desktop should be used.
Enterprise Guide is different, as it is a Windows application which stores data on your desktop.
