Introduction

Prerequisites

You must have access to a properly configured SAS 9.2 Metadata Server to create and access metadata. A properly configured metadata server has a foundation repository that contains standard SAS 9.2 metadata. The SAS 9.2 Deployment Wizard installs and configures a proper SAS 9.2 Metadata Server for you. An existing SAS 9.1.3 Metadata Server can be migrated to the SAS 9.2 environment by using the SAS Migration Utility with the SAS 9.2 Deployment Wizard. For more information, see the SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform: 9.1.3 to 9.2 Migration Guide.
To connect to the SAS Metadata Server, you must be able to authenticate to the server. To create and update metadata, you must have proper authorization to metadata repositories. For more information, see the SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.
