SAS(R) 9.1.3 Companion for z/OS

524 VSAMLOAD System Option Chapter 18
Default: NOVERBOSE
Valid in: configuration file, SAS invocation
Category: Log and Procedure Output Control: LOGCONTROL
PROC OPTIONS GROUP= LOGCONTROL
z/OS specifics: data written and where it is written
Syntax
VERBOSE | NOVERBOSE
Details
If you specify the VERBOSE system option at SAS invocation, the settings of all SAS
system options that were set at SAS invocation or in the configuration files will be
displayed in the following order:
1 settings in the system configuration file
2 settings in the user configuration file, if you have one
3 settings at SAS invocation.
If you specify the VERBOSE system option in a configuration file, only the options
that are processed after VERBOSE is encountered are displayed. In other words,
VERBOSE can appear in a configuration file, but the resulting options list then
includes only those options that follow it in the configuration file.
If you invoke SAS interactively, the settings are displayed on the screen. If you
invoke SAS as part of a batch job, the settings are written to the batch job log.
