Syntax
DLMSGLEVEL=ERROR | WARN | INFO | DIAG
Required Arguments
- ERROR
-
causes a message to
be written to the SAS log when an error occurs during processing of
a SAS 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 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 can 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.
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.
