The LIBNAME statement
for the Information Maps engine associates a SAS libref with information
maps that are stored in a metadata server. The engine reads information
maps and uses their metadata to access underlying data.
You must have a metadata
server available that contains metadata that defines the information
maps to be accessed. For the necessary server identifiers and metadata
object names and identifiers, see the documentation for your application.
The metadata server,
which is a multi-user server that stores metadata from one or more
metadata repositories, must be running in order to execute the LIBNAME
statement for the engine.
For information about
defining metadata, installing and setting up a standard SAS Metadata
Server, or changing the standard configuration options for the metadata
server, see the
SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
