Proc Metadata in SAS Viya

Ved_Agrawal — Tue, 26 Mar 2019 14:48:58 GMT

How do I set metadata options to run a proc metadata in SAS Viya?

If I run it without any meta option set I get the below:

1 OPTIONS NONOTES NOSTIMER NOSOURCE NOSYNTAXCHECK;

73 proc metalib;

74 omr (library="work");

75 report;

76 run;

ERROR: Insufficient information provided for a connection to the metadata server.

NOTE: The SAS System stopped processing this step because of errors.

NOTE: PROCEDURE METALIB used (Total process time):

real time 0.00 seconds

cpu time 0.00 seconds

78 OPTIONS NONOTES NOSTIMER NOSOURCE NOSYNTAXCHECK;

How to manage metadata in SAS Viya if Proc Metalib is not supported. ? We now run in SAS 9.4 and investigate how to change our load system that we now use to load data from disk after server restart or from other databases into the Lasr-server. When loading or reloading from an updated version of the source-database-table, we always delete the old metadata and generate new metadata in order to automatically (in batch mode..) include any new columns . Perhaps we need a reference to newer documentation?
