Save an In-Memory Table to HDFS

This feature is available for deployments that use Hadoop as a co-located data provider only.
To save an in-memory table to HDFS:
  1. Select LASRthen selectSave a Table to HDFS.
  2. Click Table to select the SAS LASR Analytic Server table that you want to save.
  3. Make any necessary changes to the Location and Library fields in the HDFS Table section.
    Note: The data builder is initially configured to use the Visual Analytics Public LASR library and Visual Analytics Public HDFS library. If you specify different libraries, then make sure that you understand how the path in HDFS is related to the server tag for the SAS LASR Analytic Server library. For more information, see SAS Visual Analytics: Administration Guide.
  4. (Optional) Specify options. By default, the data builder replaces the table in HDFS if it already exists. You can specify the number of redundant copies for the table.
  5. Click Save, and specify a name and location.
  6. Click Run to save the table to HDFS.
Note: The table is saved with the user ID of the user that started the SAS LASR Analytic Server.
