PURGE Statement
Removes any retained metadata-bound library credentials older than a given date of replacement.
| Requirement: | The AUTHLIB PURGE statement requires a connection to the target metadata server. For more requirements, see Requirements for Using the AUTHLIB Statements. |
| Tip: | Each password and encryption key option must be coded on a separate line to ensure that they are properly blotted in the log. |
Syntax
Required Arguments
PW=all-password
specifies a single password for a metadata-bound library.
ALTER=alter-password
specifies one of a maximum of three password values for a metadata-bound library.
READ=read-password
specifies one of a maximum of three password values for a metadata-bound library.
WRITE=write-password
specifies one of a maximum of three password values for a metadata-bound library.
BEFORE=datetime
specifies a datetime constant before any replaced, but retained, credentials are removed.
Optional Argument
LIBRARY=libref
name of the physical library for which the metadata-bound library is created and the security information is stored.
If the LIBRARY= option is not specified, then the physical library from the AUTHLIB procedure is used.
| Alias | LIB=, DDNAME=, DD= |
| Restriction | The physical library specified cannot be a concatenated library, temporary library, or accessed through a SAS/SHARE server and must be processed by an engine that supports metadata-bound libraries. |
