Usage

Preliminaries

All researchers from UU have access to SAS (you do not need to provide your own license).

By default, this workspace comes with a minimal installation of SAS (SAS BASE and STAT). If you need access to other products from the SAS suite, please contact us.

Please note that SAS installation takes a while (~20 minutes), so workspace creation can take about 40 minutes (as the operating system must also be configured).

Open SAS

When logged in to the workspace:

1. Open the ‘Start’ menu
2. You will find SAS under the SAS9.4 subfolder in the ‘Start’ menu.

Open iBridges

iBridges, the application recommended for data management for Yoda and iRODS servers, is accessible via a shortcut on the desktop.
