Syntax
DLMSGLEVEL=ERROR | WARN | INFO | DIAG
ERROR
causes a message to be written to the SAS log when an error occurs during
processing of a SAS data library. This value is the default.
WARN
causes a message to be written to the SAS log when SAS detects an abnormal or
unusual situation during processing of a SAS data library, yet is able to continue
processing.
INFO
causes a message to be written to the SAS log that details processing for certain
types of libraries. This setting may be requested by SAS Technical Support for
high-level problem diagnosis.
DIAG
causes SAS to produce SNAP dumps of key internal control blocks when processing
certain types of libraries. In order to receive the dumps, it is necessary to allocate
the SASSNAP DDname to a SYSOUT data set or to a sequential data set. This
setting would be requested by SAS Technical Support for detailed problem diagnosis.
Note: Each setting also implies all the preceding settings in the list. For example,
DLMSGLEVEL=INFO would cause SAS to also produce the messages that would be
generated for WARN and ERROR. R
DLTRUNCHK System Option
Enables checking for SAS data library truncation
