SAS Grid Manager Client
Utility is a command-line utility that enables users to submit SAS
programs, operating system commands, or command files to a grid for
processing. This utility allows a grid client to submit SAS programs
to a grid without requiring that SAS be installed on the machine performing
the submission. It also enables jobs to be processed on the grid without
requiring that the client remain active.
You can use the SAS
Grid Manager Client Utility's SASGSUB command to submit jobs to the
grid, view job status, retrieve results, and terminate jobs. The SAS
Grid Manager Client Utility options can be specified in a configuration
file so that they do not have to be entered manually. SASGSUB uses
the sasgsub.cfg configuration file, which contains the required options.
This file is automatically created by the
SAS Deployment
Wizard during installation. It stores the file in
<config_dir>/Applications/SASGridManagerClientUtiliy/<version>.
Platform LSF must be
installed on any machine where the SAS Grid Manager Client Utility
runs.
