Details

l_reps

specifies the returned list of currently active primary metadata repositories, in the format:

l_reps=(type=repository id
        type=repository id
        )

For details about primary and secondary repositories, see Metadata Repositories.

type

specifies the passed repository type ID. Optional. Limits the l_reps list to primary repositories of this type. If a type ID is not passed, all primary repositories will be returned (a value of _ALL_) is passed for type).

Each component has one or more metadata repository types. See the metadata type documentation for a particular component for details. For example, for SAS/Warehouse Administrator metadata repository types, see Sample Metadata API Code.

Using _GET_CURRENT_REPOSITORIES_

To return the list of active secondary repositories, use the _GET_METADATA_ method with the appropriate primary repository ID from the returned l_reps list. See the Usage notes under _GET_METADATA_ for details.
