ARM Interface Overview

The SAS 9.3 ARM interface preserves the existing SAS 9.1 ARM interface as much as possible. The ARM interface enables applications, tools, and facilities developed in ARM 2.0 to execute without change using ARM 4.0. The ARM interface offers several simplifications for ARM reporting transactions, and interface enhancements to customize ARM transaction reports. The performance (PERF) macros contain default user metrics. Default correlators are available by setting the MANAGECORRELATORS parameter in the configuration file or within your SAS program. The ARM interface has been integrated with the SAS logging facility. You can customize how your ARM logs are formatted and where they are stored.
