Specifying a Different Server for a Defined Data Source

Suppose that a data source named Payroll has been moved from a server named CICERO to one named DAVINCI. In this case, you need to change the server that you specified for the Payroll data source by doing the following:

  1. Select the Payroll data source from the Data Sources dialog (ODBC Data Source Administrator).

  2. Select [Configure]. The SAS ODBC Driver Configuration dialog (SAS ODBC Driver Configuration Dialog) appears, with CICERO listed in the Servers field.

  3. Use the Servers page to define the DAVINCI server, if it is not already defined.

  4. From the General page, if DAVINCI is not already visible in the Servers field, select the drop-list icon next to that field, and then select DAVINCI from the list.

  5. Select [OK] to save your changes.

Note:   The server name specified must be defined in the TCP/IP Services file. For more information, see The TCP/IP Services File.  [cautionend]
