find-library-server

To verify a SAS Viya library exists and find its host server, the tool searches CAS first, then SAS by uppercasing the library name. It returns the library name and confirms whether the host server is CAS or SAS.

In SAS Viya, CAS libraries are hosted on the CAS server for distributed in-memory processing, while SAS libraries reside on the SAS compute server. The library verification tool checks CAS first to determine the correct server host.

To check if a library is hosted on CAS or SAS before listing tables, request a library verification. The tool performs a two-step search across CAS and SAS, returning the confirmed server host so you can run library-scoped operations safely.

SAS Viya library verification may fail with lowercase names because SAS library names are often uppercase. The tool handles this by uppercasing the library name during its second search step on the SAS server if the initial CAS search fails.

Yes, you can confirm a SAS Viya library exists without knowing the server type. The tool automatically searches CAS first, then falls back to SAS, returning a definitive host confirmation or reporting that the library does not exist.

If a SAS Viya library cannot be found on CAS or SAS, the tool reports the library does not exist and guides you to verify the spelling. Check for typos or confirm the library name casing to ensure the search resolves correctly.
