Defining a SAS Java Batch Server

A SAS Java batch server is a component of a SAS application server definition that provides the command to run a job from a supported list of SAS applications and solutions. Only one logical SAS Java Batch server component is allowed in each SAS application server. If you need to define a batch server for more than one application, you must define each one either in a separate SAS application server or by adding a server to an existing logical Java batch server definition. Depending on your installation, a SAS Java batch server might already be defined by the software deployment wizard when SAS is installed. If you need to set it up manually, follow these steps:

In SAS Management Console, expand the Server Manager node.
Right-click the application server name with which the SAS Java Batch server is associated (for example, SASApp), and select Add Application Server Component.
On the first page of the New SAS Application Server Component Wizard, select SAS Java Batch Server and click Next.
On the next wizard page, enter a name (for example, SAS Java Batch Server), and click Next.
On the next wizard page, do the following:
- From the Associated Machine drop-down list, select the name of the machine that contains the SAS Application Server.
  Note: The machine name attribute is for documentation purposes only. SAS scheduling does not use this machine name to set up or execute the job.
- From the SubType list, specify the type of jobs that will be processed by the server. This value corresponds to the SAS solution whose scheduled jobs will be run by the server. The available types are as follows:
  
  Marketing Automation
  
  supports jobs from SAS Marketing Automation
  
  Reporting
  
  supports jobs created by SAS Web Report Studio using the outputgen command
  
  Marketing Optimization
  
  supports jobs from SAS Marketing Optimization
  
  OpRisk Monitor
  
  supports jobs from SAS Operational Risk
- In the Command line box, enter the path to the command that runs the scheduled job.
- Click Next.
On the next wizard page, review the information you have entered. If it is correct, click Finish.

When you finish the wizard, the server appears as a component under the selected SAS application server.
