Introduction

All SAS users who use LIBNAME access to SAS Scalable Performance Data (SPD) Server should read this chapter. Most table options also work in SQL Pass-Through statements.

This chapter presents reference information for the SPD Server table options. To specify a table option with LIBNAME access, place the option value in parentheses after the table name. The option value then specifies processing that applies only to that table. To specify a table option with Pass-Through access, place the option value in brackets after the table name. The option value then specifies processing that applies only to that table. The SPD Server table options that follow are grouped by the function of their default value.

When using the options in this chapter, remember that if a table option is used subsequent to a LIBNAME option or macro variable, the value of the table option takes precedence.
