Overview: AUTHLIB Procedure
The AUTHLIB procedure is a utility procedure that manages metadata-bound libraries. With PROC AUTHLIB,
you can do the following:
-
create a metadata-bound library by binding a physical library to metadata within a SAS Metadata Repository
-
modify password and encryption key values for a metadata-bound library
-
purge replaced password and encryption key values that are also known as metadata-bound library credentials
-
repair metadata-bound libraries by recovering security information, secured library objects, and secured table objects
-
remove the physical security information and metadata objects that protect a metadata-bound library
-
report inconsistencies between physical library contents and corresponding metadata objects within a specified metadata-bound library
Users cannot access
metadata-bound data sets from any release of SAS prior to the second
maintenance release of 9.3.
Note: For a z/OS direct-access
bound library that has been bound to metadata, the constraint is slightly
broader. Neither the library nor any of its members can be accessed
by earlier releases of SAS.
