DB2CATALOG= SYSIBM | catalog-owner |
specifies the default catalog owner.
specifies a different catalog owner from the default.
Details |
The default value for this option is initialized when SAS is installed. You can override the default only when these conditions are met:
SYSIBM cannot be the owner of the catalog that you want to access.
Your site must have a shadow catalog of tables (one to which all users have access).
You must set DB2CATALOG= in the restricted options table and then rebuild the table.
This option applies to only the local DB2 subsystem. So when you set the LOCATION= or SERVER= connection option in the LIBNAME statement, the SAS/ACCESS engine always uses SYSIBM as the default value.
