The window is initially populated with a list of servers the SAS metadata server provides (if connected).
Any physical and local connections are also shown (as listed in Figure 11.6 “Open a Connection to a
Remote SAS Server,” p. 382).
• Select a server to see a list of libraries that server contains.
• Select a library to see a list of data sets within that library.
• Select a data set to see a list of columns within that data set.
At any time, you can select a different data set, library, or server.
Tip: If a server is unavailable, or if the connections failed, the server’s name is shown in light, italic text.
Click it to try to re-establish the connection.
