-
integer
-
is a positive integer that represents the
number of errors after which SAS stops processing and issues a rollback.
SAS calls the data source to issue a rollback
after a specified number of errors occur during the processing of inserts,
deletes, updates, and appends. If ERRLIMIT is set to 0, SAS processes all
rows, regardless of the number of errors that occur. The SAS log displays
the total number of rows processed and the number of failed rows, if applicable.
The DBCOMMIT option overrides the ERRLIMIT option. If
you specify a DBCOMMIT value other than zero, then the ERRLIMIT option might
not include records that are processed unsuccessfully. This is because they
were already committed in the DBCOMMIT option.
Note: DBCOMMIT cannot be used from a SAS client session in a SAS/SHARE
environment. ![[cautionend]](../../../../common/63294/HTML/default/images/cautend.gif)
