Controlling the SAS Embedded Process

The SAS Embedded Process starts when a query is submitted using the SAS_EP function. It continues to run until it is manually stopped or the database is shut down.
Note: Starting and stopping the SAS Embedded Process has implications for all scoring model publishers.
Note: Manually starting and stopping the SAS Embedded Process requires superuser permissions and must be done from the Greenplum master node.
When the SAS Embedded Process is installed, the ShutdownSASEP.sh and StartupSASEP.sh scripts are installed in the following directory. For more information about these files, see Moving and Installing the SAS Embedded Process.
/path_to_sh_file/SAS/SASTKInDatabaseServerForGreenplum/9.4_M2
Use the following command to shut down the SAS Embedded Process.
/path_to_sh_file/SAS/SASTKInDatabaseServerForGreenplum/9.4_M2/ShutdownSASEP.sh
    <-quiet>
When invoked from the master node, ShutdownSASEP.sh shuts down the SAS Embedded Process on each database node. The -verbose option is on by default and provides a status of the shutdown operations as they occur. You can specify the -quiet option to suppress messages. This script should not be used as part of the normal operation. It is designed to be used to shut down the SAS Embedded Process prior to a database upgrade or re-install.
Use the following command to start the SAS Embedded Process.
/path_to_sh_file/SAS/SASTKInDatabaseServerForGreenplum/9.4_M2/StartupSASEP.sh
    <-quiet>
When invoked from the master node, StartupSASEP.sh manually starts the SAS Embedded Process on each database node. The -verbose option is on by default and provides a status of the installation as it occurs. You can specify the -quiet option to suppress messages. This script should not be used as part of the normal operation. It is designed to be used to manually start the SAS Embedded Process and only after consultation with SAS Technical Support.
CAUTION:
The timing option must be off for any of the .sh scripts to work.
Put \timing off in your .psqlrc file before running these scripts.
