Statistical Analysis System is a statistical software suite developed by SAS Institute for data management, advanced analytics, multivariate analysis, business intelligence, criminal investigation, and predictive analytics.

Example Job

An example job is stored in /share/apps/SAS/example_job. Here is how you can run this job from your account through the scheduler.

First copy the example directory files into your account. Use SASexample as your directory name:

pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~$ mkdir SASexample
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~$ cp /share/apps/SAS/example_job/* SASexample/
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~$ cd SASexample
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$ cat sascode_example.sas 
libname home "~/SASexample" ;

proc options option = work ;
run;

proc sort data = home.unsorteddata ;
by  DirectorID DirBrdID ;
run;
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$

Next using an editor of your choice, create a SLURM job script to run the example. This is a short example. 1 node and 1 core for 5 minutes will be enough. The script is named sas.slurm below:

pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$ cat sas.slurm 
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -p comp01
#SBATCH -t 5:00
#SBATCH -N1 -n1

cd ~/SASexample
/share/apps/SAS/SASHome/SASFoundation/9.4/bin/sas_en sascode_example.sas
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$

Then submit the job into the queue and wait for it to run:

pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$ sbatch sas.slurm 
Submitted batch job 128940
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$ squeue -u pwolinsk
             JOBID PARTITION     NAME     USER ST       TIME  NODES NODELIST(REASON)
            128940     comp01 sas.slur pwolinsk PD       0:00      1 (None)
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$ squeue -u pwolinsk
             JOBID PARTITION     NAME     USER ST       TIME  NODES NODELIST(REASON)
pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$

When the job finishes look for output files:

pinnacle-l1:pwolinsk:~/SASexample$
 ls -ltr

You are running SAS 9. Some SAS 8 files will be automatically converted 
by the V9 engine; others are incompatible.  Please see 
http://support.sas.com/rnd/migration/planning/platform/64bit.html

PROC MIGRATE will preserve current SAS file attributes and is 
recommended for converting all your SAS libraries from any 
SAS 8 release to SAS 9.  For details and examples, please see
