If you're running out of space in your SASWORK directory and have other directories or mount points to put work files and don't want to ask you System Administrator for help then try combining multiple work directories in your saswork option.

1. Create a text file that contains the directories or mount points where you would like to direct SASWORK locations. (called /sas/workconfig)

2. Your text file should look something like this. Choose a method for SAS to pick which directory it should use first. (Random or Space)
/tmp1
/tmp2
/var/tmp
/sas/saswork
method=space

3. In your sasv9_usermods.cfg file refer work to the text file created above.
-work /sas/workconfig

P.S. A tomato is a fruit so don't even feel bad for combining it with apples and oranges. ☺
