Creating a Metadata Repository in a DBMS R Attributes Used to Connect to a DB2 Database 131<br />

dbchar_constant_is_spoofed=yes<br />

required and is valid only when used for access to <strong>SAS</strong> Metadata Repositories by<br />

the Oracle engine.<br />

connection=shared<br />

specifies that all tables that are opened for reading by the LIBNAME or libref<br />

share this connection.<br />

readbuff=1<br />

specifies the number of rows in a single Oracle fetch. A value of 1 is required.<br />

insertbuff=1<br />

specifies the number of rows in a single Oracle insert operation. A value of 1 is<br />

required.<br />

spool=no<br />

prevents spooling in the Oracle engine. This spooling is unnecessary because the<br />

<strong>SAS</strong> Metadata Server uses the <strong>SAS</strong> In Memory Database for the repository tables.<br />

utilconn_transient=no<br />

specifies that a utility connection is maintained for the lifetime of the libref.<br />

dbmax_text=4096<br />

(optional) on 64-bit platforms, specifies the length of any very long DBMS character<br />

data that is read into <strong>SAS</strong> or written from <strong>SAS</strong> via the <strong>SAS</strong>/ACCESS engine.<br />

PATH=path<br />

specifies an alias representing the database server to which you want to connect.<br />

The alias points to information such as a hostname, a port number, and a<br />

transmission protocol. If you are not sure what path to use, consult with your<br />

database administrator.<br />

USER=user<br />

specifies an Oracle user name. If the user name contains blanks or national<br />

characters, enclose the name in quotation marks. If you omit an Oracle user name<br />

and password, then the default Oracle user OPS$sysid is used, if it is enabled.<br />

The USER option must be used with the PASSWORD option.<br />

PASSWORD=password<br />

specifies an Oracle password that is associated with the Oracle user name. If you<br />

omit the PASSWORD option, then the password for the default Oracle user ID<br />

OPS$sysid is used, if it is enabled.<br />

SCHEMA=schema<br />

(optional) enables you to register multiple repositories using the same Oracle user<br />

account. When you omit the SCHEMA option, the software uses the default schema,<br />

which is the requesting user ID, to create the repository. A schema name such as<br />

<strong>SAS</strong>RMGR is recommended when you are creating the repository manager. The<br />

schema name must be entered in uppercase letters and be a valid <strong>SAS</strong> name that<br />

is unique for the USER, PASSWORD, and PATH options.<br />

Attributes Used to Connect to a DB2 Database<br />

When you edit the file omaconfig.xml in order to create a repository manager in a<br />

DB2 database, you must specify the attributes shown below for the element:<br />

LIBREF<br />

specifies the libref that <strong>SAS</strong> will use to connect to the repository manager. The<br />

usual value of this attribute is RPOSMGR.
