<strong>Platform</strong> Calendar Editor<br />

is a scheduling client for a Process Manager Server. This client enables you to<br />

create new calendar entries for time dependencies for jobs that are scheduled to<br />

run on the server. You can use it to create custom versions of the calendars that<br />

are used to create time dependencies for jobs.<br />

<strong>Platform</strong> Load Sharing Facility (LSF)<br />

handles the load balancing and execution of batch commands (which represent<br />

jobs). <strong>Platform</strong> LSF manages and accelerates batch workload processing for<br />

computer- and data-intensive applications. Process Manager Servers use <strong>Platform</strong><br />

LSF for the execution of the jobs within a flow.<br />

<strong>Platform</strong> Grid Management Services<br />

manages jobs that are scheduled in a grid environment. This software collects<br />

information on the jobs that are running on the grid and the nodes to which work<br />

has been distributed, and makes the information available to the Grid Manager<br />

plug-in for <strong>SAS</strong> Management Console. You can use Grid Manager to view and<br />

manage the grid workload information.<br />

For more information, see “Supporting Grid Computing” in the <strong>SAS</strong> <strong>Intelligence</strong><br />

<strong>Platform</strong>: Application Server <strong>Administration</strong> <strong>Guide</strong>.<br />

If you wish, you can use your operating system’s scheduling capabilities instead of<br />

<strong>Platform</strong> Product Suite for <strong>SAS</strong>. However, some scheduling features are not available.<br />

In addition, you cannot use an operating system scheduler for jobs that are generated<br />

by <strong>SAS</strong> Web Report studio.<br />
