The name of the new log file is determined by the value of the LOG= system option. If LOG= does not contain a directive, however, the name would never change, so the log would never roll over, even when ROLLOVER=AUTO.

1Because %v, %l, and %p are not a time-based format, the log filename will never change after it has been generated. Therefore, the log will never roll over. In these situations, specifying ROLLOVER=AUTO is equivalent to specifying ROLLOVER=SESSION. |
sas -log "test%H%M.log" -logparm "rollover=auto"
sas -log "test%H%M.log" -logparm "rollover=session"
sas -log "test%H%M.log" -logparm "rollover=none"
sas -log "test%v.log" -logparm "rollover=session"SAS replaces the directive %v with process_IDvn, where process_ID is a numeric process identifier that is determined by the operating system and n is an integer number, starting with 1. The letter v that is between process_ID and n is always a lowercase letter.
