SAS Companion for UNIX Environments

Introduction

When the SAS System is installed, its entire directory structure is placed on a node in your file system. This node, which forms the root of the SAS System, is called the sasroot directory. Although sasroot can be located anywhere in your file system, the system administrator typically installs it in /usr/local/sas8. The SET system option is used to specify the name of the sasroot directory. (See SET.)

This appendix discusses the contents and function of the files and directories in the sasroot directory.
