Which action is required for enabling performance statistics on the executing SAS Workspace Server?

Question

Options

• ADefine a logfile for output.
• BDefine Collect Diagnostics for the SAS Data Integration Studio job.
• CDefine Collect Runtime statistics for the SAS Data Integration Studio job.
• DEnable the logging facility of the SAS Workspace Server.

• A
  9% (2)
• B
  5% (1)
• D
  86% (19)

Explanation

Enabling the logging facility of the SAS Workspace Server (D) is the required action because performance statistics are captured through the server's built-in logging infrastructure - without activating this facility, the server has no mechanism to collect or report execution metrics. Option A is wrong because defining a logfile only specifies where output goes, not whether performance data is gathered in the first place. Options B and C are job-level settings in SAS Data Integration Studio that control diagnostic/runtime collection at the job layer, but these depend on the server-level logging facility already being active - they cannot work if the underlying server logging is off. Option D is the foundational prerequisite that everything else builds on.

Memory tip: Think "server first, job second" - you must turn on the server's logging facility before any job-level statistics settings have anything to write to.
