Is it possible to declare concateneted libraries in Management Console ?

Hello.

We need to create several Oracle libraries pointing to different schema and make a global library for users.

Statements in SAS/Base :

LIBNAME activite ORACLE user='READER' password='{SAS002}0EF2F80158DAF41C3787AC9B00137C19' path='PASTELPRD' schema='ACTIVITE';
LIBNAME admpat   ORACLE user='READER' password='{SAS002}0EF2F80158DAF41C3787AC9B00137C19' path='PASTELPRD' schema='ADMPATIENT';
LIBNAME r_oddpas (activite admpat);

Tables from activite and admpat libraries are displayed in r_oddpas library.

But how to declare r_oddpas in Management Console so we could manage rights using ACT ?

Is it possible ?

Thanks.

I haven't looked to see if that's possible but, if it's just about applying the same ACT, then I'd suggest putting the libraries in the same metadata folder and applying the ACT to that rather than explicitly to the libraries. Which is what I'd recommend anyway. If you store table definitions in the metadata then the ACT will also apply to them, which wouldn't necessarily be the case otherwise.

The danger with concatenating database libraries is if there are duplicate table names in different schemas. With my suggestion, to get round this, you could actually make subfolders for each library within the folder that the ACT is applied to.
