How can I assign an existing caslib to a session?

xiaoys0725 — Fri, 15 Sep 2017 19:20:27 GMT

Suppose I have already created a caslib before, let's call it caslib1, and it does not have a global scope. so it has a scope based on a session called session1.

Now I have a new session, session2, and I want it to use caslib1.

Is there any way that I can assign this caslib to session2?

Thank you!

@xiaoys0725,

You need to promote a table to the global scope using promote action.

Do you mean the table belongs to a global caslib and then I need to promote it ?

@xiaoys0725,

I meant that the table belongs to your session and if you want to access it from another session, you have to promote it to the global scope.
