Overview

After the installation and configuration is complete, you will want to verify your deployment. To verify that SAS Enterprise Miner is operational, start the SAS Enterprise Miner client, create a project, create a diagram, and run a node.

Starting SAS Enterprise Miner

For an installed client on the Windows operating system, the Start menu will contain a SAS folder that includes a shortcut to SAS Enterprise Miner Client 14.2 or SAS Enterprise Miner Workstation 14.2.
To start the SAS Enterprise Miner 14.2 client using Java Web Start, open the SAS Enterprise Miner Status page. That page will be similar to the following: http://myserver.mynet.mycompany.com:80/SASEnterpriseMinerJWS/Status. If you are using Java Web Start, then you need to install a third-party JRE.
Note: You will replace myserver.mynet.mycompany with the URL to the server that SAS Enterprise Miner was installed on.
Select the Launch link to start Java Web Start to load and run the SAS Enterprise Miner 14.2 client.
