| System Options under z/OS |
Controls what type of parameter list is used to invoke the host
sort utility.
| Default: |
SORT31PL
|
| Valid in: |
configuration file, SAS invocation, OPTIONS
statement, OPTIONS window
|
| Category: |
Sort: SORT
|
| PROC OPTIONS GROUP= |
SORT
|
| z/OS specifics: |
all
|
If SORT31PL is in effect, a 31-bit extended
parameter list is used to invoke the host sort utility. If NOSORT31PL is
in effect, a 24-bit parameter list is used.
If SORT31PL is specified, then the SORTOPTS system option
should also be specified. Also, because sorts that currently support a 31-bit
parameter list also support the EQUALS option, the SORTEQOP system option
should be specified in order to maximize performance.
For information about specifying the appropriate setting for the SORT31PL
option, see the documentation for your sort utility.
