METADATA Procedure

Example 1: Change a Repository's State

Procedure features:

IN= argument

A repository's state is computed from both the repository's registered access mode and the metadata server's state. To change the repository's state, submit the UpdateMetadata method with PROC METADATA. The example code re-registers the repository with a different access mode, causing the repository's state to be recomputed. To properly execute this code, the repository manager must be in a read-write state. For example, if the metadata server is paused offline, the repository manager will be offline and cannot be updated with this code.

The value of the Access= attribute can be any of the following integers:

Access= Attribute	Computed Repository State
0	online
1	readonly
2	admin
4	offline

Program

proc metadata 
   in="<UpdateMetadata>
        <Metadata>
         <RepositoryBase id='A0000001.A58LN5R2' Access='0'/>
        </Metadata>
        <NS>repos</NS>
        <Flags>268435456</Flags>
       </UpdateMetadata>";
   run;
