Hello,
I have my labels stored in a macrovariable. I want to apply them to my LASR table but i'm receiving an error.
Do i have to change the assigning of my library? Or are there other possibilties? I prefer not to do a datastep.
proc datasets library=&lasrLibref;
modify &outtable;
label &label_sql_dataset;
run;
ERROR: Update access is not supported for file KS1BU01L.TEST_1510_1149.DATA.
You have to use metadata_setattr function, because you need to update a metadata entry for that table.
data _null_;
rc=metadata_setattr("omsobj:PhysicalTable?@Id='<TABLE_ID>'","Desc","This is a new label");
put rc=;
run;
Is your code for column label? Or for the table label?
That code will update the metadata column "Description".
Hi,
I've solved it with putting the labels in my datastep statement which will load the data to hadoop from SQL database.
/* upload to hadoop with labels */
data &hdfsLibref..&outtable (/*debug optie: logupdate=yes*/ blocksize=64M label="&tableDescr.");
set &_input;
label &label_sql_dataset;
run;
