Naming the WORK Library

If you are using a shared file system for the SASWORK libraries created by each SAS grid session, each SASWORK subdirectory must have a unique name. The default method used by SAS to generate unique work directories does not maintain unique directories across grid nodes.
To ensure unique work directory names across grid nodes, you can add a machine name component to the -work parameter in the Grid Command field of the Grid Server metadata definition. Alternatively, you could include the parameters in the sasgrid.cmd file (on Windows) or the sasgrid file (on UNIX).
An example command is -work S:\SASWork\%COMPUTERNAME%.
An example invocation line is: C:\SAS\Grid\Lev1\SASApp\GridServer\sasgrid —work S:\SASWork\%COMPUTERNAME%
