SAS provides
a family of system options to define the default SAS Metadata Server.
The following table shows the system options by category.
System Options by Category
To determine what system option
settings are active in your SAS session, you can issue the OPTIONS
command on the command line. Or submit the following procedure statement:
proc options group=meta; run;
Usually these system
options are set in a configuration file or at invocation. Some of
the options can be changed at any time; see the options documentation.
The metadata system options affect every server that uses an Integrated
Object Model (IOM) connection to the metadata server. IOM servers
include the SAS Workspace Server, SAS Pooled Workspace Server, SAS
Stored Process Server, SAS OLAP Server, and SAS Table Server, as well
as any Base SAS session that connects to the metadata server.

SAS Language Reference: Concepts. For

operating environment. For information about administration, see
