When SAS is started
with the OBJECTSERVER and NOTERMINAL system options and no log is
specified, SAS discards all log and alternate log messages.
NOLOG suppresses the
creation of the SAS log. Do not use this value unless your SAS program
is thoroughly debugged.
Using
directives in the value of the LOG system option enables you to control
when logs are opened and closed and how they are named, based on real-time
events, such as time, month, day of week, and so on. For a list of
directives, see the
LOGPARM= System Option: z/OS.
If
you start SAS in batch mode or server mode and the LOGCONFIGLOC= option
is specified, logging is done by the SAS logging facility. The traditional
SAS log option LOGPARM= is ignored. The traditional SAS log option
LOG= is honored only when the %S{App.Log} conversion character is
specified in the logging configuration file. For more information,
see
The SAS Logging Facility in SAS Logging: Configuration and Programming Reference.
