Overview

Selerity Desktop (Personal) allows you to configure and maintain one or more SAS Analytics Pro environments on your local machine.

Each desktop (environment) is identified by a name (sas-analytics-pro by default) that can be specified on the command line with the --desktop parameter.

When you create a new desktop environment, Selerity Desktop (Personal) creates a directory to store you configuration in using the name of the desktop under your home directory1. For example, using the default name of sas-analytics-pro the configuration directory used is:

C:\Users\<username>\selerity\personal\sas-analytics-pro

/Users/<username>/selerity/personal/sas-analytics-pro

/home/<username>/selerity/personal/sas-analytics-pro

This location contains information about how your desktop should be configured as well as any additional files required for the add-ons you have enabled.

The directory located here named data is the "home" directory that you have access to within SAS Analytics Pro.

Warning

Be careful changing any directory or file under a desktop configuration directory that isn't within the data directory as this may cause your desktop to become unstable.

  1. Use the --selerity-home command line parameter to use a location other than your home directory. ↩
