In the UNIX operating environment, you can use a symbolic link to start SAS Management Console. The following examples of UNIX commands create the symbolic link and start SAS Management Console:
> ln -s /usr/local/SAS/SASManagementConsole/9.3/sasmc /usr/local/bin/sasmc > sasmc
If you do not specify any options, SAS Management Console uses the parameters specified in the sasmc.ini file. The following sections contain information about options that you can specify on the command line or add to the sasmc.ini file.
Specify Java Options |
To specify Java options when you start SAS Management Console, use the -javaopts option and enclose the Java options in single quotation marks. For example, the following command starts SAS Management Console on Windows and contains Java options that specify the locale as Japanese.
sasmc -javaopts '-Duser.language=ja -Duser.country=JP'
Specify the Plug-in Location |
By default, SAS Management Console looks for plug-ins in a plugins directory under the directory in which the application was installed. If you are starting SAS Management Console from another location, you must specify the location of the directory by using the -pluginsDir option. The syntax of the option is as follows:
sasmc -pluginsdir <plugin-path>
