You can use server initialization
code to automatically allocate SAS libraries when users start an Enterprise
Miner project. Server initialization code is a server-based text file
comprised of SAS statements that execute when an Enterprise Miner
project starts up. For example, you can specify LIBNAME statements
to allocate one or more libraries when a SAS Enterprise Miner project
starts. You can use the Enterprise Miner plug-in to SAS Management
Console to customize the properties of Enterprise Miner logical workspace
servers, including specifying a path for the logical workspace server
to load optional server initialization code that you write.
When you install Enterprise
Miner, the Enterprise Miner plug-in for SAS Management Console is
copied to the directory where your SAS Management Console is installed.
After you install the Enterprise Miner plug-in, the Enterprise Miner
application icon appears in the Application Management section of
the left pane of the
SAS Management Console window.
In the Application Management
section, expand the Enterprise Miner icon to display the Projects
and Models folders, as shown in the following display:
The Enterprise Miner
Projects folder contains a list of all of the Enterprise Miner projects
that are registered in the Enterprise Miner repository. When you click
the Projects folder, a list of all the registered projects is displayed
in the adjacent pane on the right. When you expand the Projects folder,
the projects that are displayed are sorted by Logical Workspace Server.
Expand the Logical Workspace Server icon in the left pane to subset
the list of projects that appear on the right. This enables you to
display only the projects that belong to a selected server. You can
view and customize Logical Workspace Servers even if you do not have
any registered Enterprise Miner projects. Servers that have no registered
Enterprise Miner projects will recognize their custom project settings
when new projects are created on the servers.
To customize the properties
for an Enterprise Miner server, perform the following steps:
-
Right-click the icon
for a server under the Projects folder, and then select Properties
from the pop-up menu. The
Logical Workspace Server Properties window appears.
-
In the Path box of the
Default Location for New Projects section, enter a default location
for new Enterprise Miner projects that are created on this server.
-
If you want to prevent
users who create projects from changing the default project location,
select the
Do not allow users to change this location check box .
-
In the
Max.
Concurrent Nodes list, specify the maximum number of
concurrently running branches that you want to allow in project process
flow diagrams.
-
In the
Initialization
Code box, enter the path (on this server) to a project
start-up file, if you want to use one. A project start-up file is
a text file that contains SAS code that you would like to run when
a project is opened, or if a process flow diagram is run, or if result
reports are generated.
-
In the MPCONNECT launch
command box, you can enter an alternate command to use when you launch
MPCONNECT sessions. Normally, it is safe to leave the MPCONNECT launch
command box blank, but there might be cases where you would like to
modify some SAS system defaults for sessions that are used when running
process flow diagrams. The following default command is used when
this box is left blank:
!sascmdv -noobjectserver -nosyntaxcheck -noasynchio
This command has the same effect as using the SAS command that was
used to launch the SAS workspace session at the time the project was
opened.
