Problem Note 20650: SAS/ACCESS® Interface to Netezza fails with "ERROR: The NETEZZA engine cannot be found"
When you use SAS/ACCESS Interface to Netezza, it might generate the following failure message:
ERROR: The NETEZZA engine cannot be found
This problem occurs because the logical name NETEZZA is not registered in the SAS®9 core catalog.
A workaround is to use the engine name SASIONZA instead of NETEZZA in your SAS/ACCESS Interface to Netezza syntax:
libname test sasionza user=xxxw password=xxxx server=xxxx database=xxxx;
You can also run a NICKNAMES procedure to allow you to use NETEZZA instead of SASIONZA in your syntax. The following code accomplishes this. Remember that you must run it with a user ID that has write privileges for the core catalog.
proc nickname cat=sashelp.core engine;
add nickname=netezza module=sasionza desc="SAS/ACCESS to Netezza"
preferred eng;
quit;
