Estimating Disk Space Requirements

When you apply a SAS maintenance release, here are the four areas that might require additional disk space:
  • SAS Software Depot
  • SAS installation directories
  • SAS configuration directories
  • space for the deployed SAS web applications
The specific size increase depends on how SAS is deployed at your site.
Some of this increase in disk space is temporary because you can remove some files after applying a maintenance release. For more information, see Creating and Removing Backup Files.
