SAS(R) 9.1.3 Companion for z/OS

Statements under z/OS FILENAME Statement 377
REUSE
indicates that the file that you reference in the FILENAME statement is to be
freed and reallocated if it is currently in use. By default, SAS does not free and
reallocate a file that is currently in use.
WAIT=n
controls how many minutes SAS waits if the file that you reference in the
FILENAME statement is unavailable. SAS tries to reacquire the reserved data set
every 15 seconds. The value n specifies a length of time in minutes.
E-Mail Option Values
The FILENAME statement supports the following values for e-mail-options, which are
used in conjunction with the EMAIL device type to send mail from within a SAS session:
TO=‘to-address’
specifies one or more recipients to receive the outgoing message. These names
appear on the To line of the outgoing message. The following examples show the
syntax for a single address, multiple addresses, and a name with the address:
to=’joe@somplace.org’
to=("joe@smplc.org" "jane@diffplc.org")
to=’Joe Smith ’
If an address contains special characters or more than one word, enclose the
entire address in single or double quotation marks. To specify more than one
address, enclose the list of addresses in parentheses. To include a name with the
address, enclose the address in angle brackets.
CC=‘cc-address’
specifies recipients that receive a copy of the message. These addresses appear on
the CC line of the outgoing message. The following examples show the syntax for
a single copy recipient, multiple copy recipients, and a name with the address:
cc=’joe@somplace.org’
cc=(’joe@smplc.org’ ’jane@diffplc.org’)
cc=’Joe Smith ’
If an address contains special characters or more than one word, enclose the
entire address in single or double quotation marks. To specify more than one
address, enclose the list of addresses in parentheses. To include a name with the
address, enclose the address in angle brackets.
BCC=‘bcc-address’
specifies recipients that receive a “blind” carbon copy of the message. These
addresses appear on the BCC line of the outgoing message. The following
examples show the syntax for a single copy recipient, multiple copy recipients, and
a name with the address:
bcc=’joe@somplace.org’
bcc=(’joe@smplc.org’ ’jane@diffplc.org’)
bcc=’Joe Smith ’
If an address contains special characters or more than one word, enclose the
entire address in single or double quotation marks. To specify more than one
address, enclose the list of addresses in parentheses. To include a name with the
address, enclose the address in angle brackets.
