Creating Repositories

Before you can create application metadata in a SAS Metadata Repository, you must create metadata that defines at least one SAS Metadata Repository. The SAS Open Metadata Interface can be used to create a SAS Metadata Repository, but this is not the recommended way in SAS 9.3. If you perform a SAS planned installation to set up your SAS Metadata Server, the SAS Deployment Wizard creates the first repository — a foundation repository — for you. If additional repositories are needed, we recommend that you create them with SAS Management Console because it creates default metadata in the repositories for you. For more information about defining and managing SAS metadata repositories, see the SAS Intelligence Platform: System Administration Guide.
