specifies the page
size in multiples of 1 (bytes); 1,024 (kilobytes); 1,048,576 (megabytes);
or 1,073,741,824 (gigabytes). For example, a value of 8 specifies
a page size of 8 bytes, and a value of 4k specifies
a page size of 4096 bytes.
| Requirement | K, M, and G must be uppercased. |
specifies the page
size as a hexadecimal value. You must specify the value beginning
with a number (0–9), followed by an X. For example, the value 2dx sets
the page size to 45 bytes.
| Requirement | X must be uppercased. |
sets the minimum number of buffers to 0, which causes SAS to use the minimum optimal value for the operating environment.
sets the page size to the maximum possible number in your operating environment, up to the largest four-byte, signed integer. The largest four-byte, signed integer is 231–1, or approximately 2 billion bytes.
