Global Standards Library

Does It Matter Where the Global Standards Library is Located?

No. On Microsoft Windows systems, the default location for the global standards library is the c:/cstGlobalLibrary directory. On UNIX systems, the default location for the global standards library is the /usr/local/cstGlobalLibrary directory.

This location is assumed (and referenced as global standards library directory) throughout this document. global standards library directory can point to any location that is accessible by SAS.

For a summary of the cstGlobalLibrary, see “Global Standards Library” in Chapter 2, “Framework,” in the SAS Clinical Standards Toolkit: User's Guide.

How Do I Change the Location of the Global Standards Library?

The value of the variable cstGlobalLibrary is set during installation of the SAS Clinical Standards Toolkit. If you want to change the location after installation, you must modify the framework autocall utility macro cstutil_setcstgroot to point to the new location that you have chosen.

Note: The SAS Clinical Standards Toolkit recognizes and uses only one global standards library at a time.
