The following error message shows up when I tried to open a dataset in the library,&nbsp; I tried to re-created the library under the same directory, but I can't use the same library name and can't register the data in old library to the new library.&nbsp; Is there any way to restore the library? Thank you so much</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="wbsjd_0-1663090841260.png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://communities.sas.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/75211iA2B6C552D6B24787/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="wbsjd_0-1663090841260.png" alt="wbsjd_0-1663090841260.png" /></span></P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="wbsjd_1-1663091106254.png" style="width: 529px;"><img src="https://communities.sas.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/75212i5D0B3E711F351AF3/image-dimensions/529x135?v=v2" width="529" height="135" role="button" title="wbsjd_1-1663091106254.png" alt="wbsjd_1-1663091106254.png" /></span></P><P>&nbsp;</P> Tue, 13 Sep 2022 17:45:24 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/Administration-and-Deployment/Restore-a-library-in-SAS-Data-Integration-Studio/m-p/833194#M25048 wbsjd 2022-09-13T17:45:24Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/Administration-and-Deployment/Restore-a-library-in-SAS-Data-Integration-Studio/m-p/833250#M25049 <P>My understanding is these library definitions are stored in SAS metadata.
