When one or more of the disks specified by the DATAPATH= option on an SPDE form LIBNAME becomes full, an SPDE data set may be corrupted. No ERROR or WARNING messages are generated when this occurs. The operating system does generate an out of space condition, but it is not returned to the engine until after the problematic write operation which corrupts the data set has occurred.
