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 and to start interactive sessions on grid machines. 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, start interactive sessions, 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.
