When using the Upload to LASR task in SAS® Enterprise Guide®, you might encounter the following error:
Unable to locate any LASR libraries. This task requires LASR Library.
Rules to Follow When Using the Upload to LASR Feature
- Data sets need to be in a defined library on the SAS Server, not on the local PC. Select Tasks ► Data ► Upload Data Files to Server. Using this SAS Enterprise Guide task, move your table to any library on the server, including the WORK library.
- SAS Enterprise Guide and SAS® Visual Analytics must connect to the same SAS® Metadata Server for this task to execute.
- If SASApp is processing the Upload to LASR task, the LASR library must be defined on SASApp. The Compute Server, SASApp, can find only the libraries defined to it. This means that it is not able to see the libraries defined on other servers such as SASAppVA.
If You Have Multiple Application Servers
If you have multiple Application servers, such as SASAppVA, there are a couple of ways to use the Upload to LASR task:
- Set up a unique library on BOTH servers that point to the same network location. For example, if you have LIBNAME X on SASApp, and LIBNAME Y on SASAppVA, both of these libraries point to the same physical location on the network. Then, from SASApp, create and store data in library X. Now, connect to the SASAppVA server in SAS Enterprise Guide, and use the task to upload the data from library Y.
- Define the LASR library on SASApp.
