Hi all,
I need to conditionally connect to different SQL Server in SAS programs based on the server the SAS porgram runs. How to get the server identifying information?
Thanks a lot in advance!
Check out this thread, it has several automatic variables that might help
Automatic macro variables are the key. SYSHOSTNAME holds the name of the server running SAS, and SYSSCP and SYSSCPL reveal the operating system under which SAS it executing. Try something like this:
data _NULL_;
PUTLOG "NOTE: This is execuing on server &SYSHOSTNAME";
PUTLOG "NOTE: SAS is running under &SYSSCPL &SYSSCPL";
run;
%syshost can be used .i am currently using this automatic macro variable.
It's finally time to hack! Remember to visit the SAS Hacker's Hub regularly for news and updates.
Learn how use the CAT functions in SAS to join values from multiple variables into a single value.
