The MSG= system option specifies the library that contains the SAS error messages. In the OpenVMS environment, the default value for the MSG= system option is the directory that is pointed to by the SAS$MSG logical name. If no SAS$MSG logical name is defined, SAS cannot start.

The MSG= system option replaces the SASMSG= system option.
