To migrate a SAS library, use the MIGRATE procedure.
If you are migrating from a 32-bit to a 64-bit environment, and catalogs
are present in the library, you must have access to a 32–bit
Release 8
SAS/CONNECT or
SAS/SHARE server.
Note: If Release 8.2 files were
created on a 64–bit UNIX computer, then these files are native
on UNIX in SAS 9 for computers with the same data representation as
those files that were created in Release 8.2. You do not need to migrate
these files.
For information about
the MIGRATE procedure and how to use the PROC MIGRATE Calculator,
see Migration at the
Technical Support Web site.
