For environments where
a server-based installation is not required, the SAS Enterprise Miner
Workstation installation supports a single-user, single-machine installation.
The single-user Workstation installation is not a planned installation
and is a simpler process than the Server installation. It can be installed
on any Microsoft Windows operating system (32 or 64 bit) that is supported
by SAS.
Note: The SAS Enterprise Miner
Workstation, SAS Enterprise Miner Desktop, and SAS Enterprise Miner
Classroom releases are virtually identical installations.
-
For the SAS Enterprise
Miner Workstation installation, no Web application server is required
after your system is prepared and the pre-installation tasks are complete.
You need to log on to the target machine with Administrator privileges.
Start the SAS Deployment Wizard from the highest-level directory in
your SAS Software Depot using the setup application that is appropriate
for your operating system. For example, on a Windows system, that
file is setup.exe and is located in the SAS Software Depot folder.
