Do not see an option to create metadata library in SAS EG 6.1?

PKumar — Thu, 22 May 2014 01:55:53 GMT

I am just trying to explore SAS EG 6.1 & noticed I did not have an option to create a new library (Servers --> SASApp --> Libraries --> right click create new library option). Made sure I have the capability as I am part of SAS EG:Advanced role. Any thoughts ?

Try this:

Tools > SAS Enterprise Guide Explorer > File > New > Libraries.

Good Luck,

@Pkumar, The task of creating a library in EG is one approach to achieve that. The libname coding in sas-program will also work.
Both methods could be affected by the parallel code submission property of the EG-project. In that case changes done in a session will not get back to your EG session.

With the libname task you can define at which appserver, the SAS admin can define multiple of them.

Changing the appservername in the libname-task did not work and even did a hangup of EGuide (5.1). I expect this failure still being present at EG 6.1
