For additional information about server requirements, system administrators should see

drop-down menu on the Job Editor window toolbar. Then, click Submit in the toolbar to

Meeting Prerequisites for Collecting Job

Statistics

You can track performance statistics for a job that is run interactively. You can use SAS

Web Report Studio or the SAS Stored Process Server to display pre-built reports for

multiple jobs that were executed on a batch server. If your site has licensed SAS®

Environment Manager and SAS® Job Monitor, then you can use a web browser to

display run-time statistics for jobs. To collect job statistics, the following prerequisites

must be met:

• The logging facility must be enabled on the server that executes the job. ARM

statistics are enabled by default for SAS Workspace Servers, but not for SAS Batch

servers. If you want to use the pre-built reports, the SAS Data Integration Studio job

statistics package must also be installed and configured on the server. For more

information, administrators should see the "Administering Logging for SAS Servers"

chapter in the SAS Intelligence Platform System Administration Guide.

• The collect run-time statistics option must be enabled for the job. This option is

enabled by default. If the option has been disabled, and you want to enable it, open

the job in the Job Editor window. Then, right-click the canvas and select Collect

Runtime Statistics and Collect Table Statistics. Note that you can also select

Collect Diagnostics.

Note: You can collect run-time statistics for all new jobs by selecting Tools ð Options

ð Job Editor. Then, select the check boxes for Collect Runtime Statistics and

Collect Table Statistics. You can also use the Maximum numbers of warnings
