In the Server List of my SAS Enterprise Guide session I have a white (unassigned) library which I can right-click to assign. Is there a programming statement, perhaps a libname statement, or task, that I can use in an EG project to automate this step?

Open SAS Management Console.

Go to Data Library Manager, find the library you want to modify, right-click for Properties.

Go to Options tab - click Advaced Options button - check Library is Pre-Assigned checkbox.

You should have METAAUTORESOURCES option enabled on your application server.
