Hi, I have a question about LASR 2.8 From what I read, loading data into LASR is the same as putting data into memory (not physically copying it to other place in hard drive) To do this in non-distributed version we have to just use data step to create table in lasr server. (For example, copy data as table from one database system to LASR) So now, after moving it to memory we have to register our table to be able to use it with SAS VA. What happens when we register this table with metalib procedure? We have to select name of registered table and folder to store data. Please let me know if this text is true so far and let me know answers to below questions: 1. If we copy table to LASR, is the data only in memory and it stays in memory? When is it removed? 2. When we register table with metalib procedure, does it create physical file? Does this procedure create any form of our data? Just beside of metadata which I understand as basic information about the table and not the data itself. 3. What is the folder given in metalib procedure? Does it indicate place where the data is stored/saved? Is in in memory? Thank you Jakub
