Problem Note 17653: -SGIO option generates I/O error message when ODS or procedure output is to an existing SAS data set
When the option SGIO is set, an I/O error can occur when a SAS data set exists and is specified as the output of a procedure or as the output destination for ODS. For an example see the following code:

NOTE: SAS initialization used:
real time 1.64 seconds
cpu time 0.65 seconds
1 proc contents data=sasuser._all_ out=sasuser.testpete;
2 run;
NOTE: The data set SASUSER.TESTPETE has 113 observations and 40 variables.
NOTE: PROCEDURE CONTENTS used (Total process time):
real time 1.28 seconds
cpu time 0.12 seconds
2 quit;
3 proc contents data=sasuser._all_ out=sasuser.testpete;
4 run;
ERROR: An I/O error has occurred on file SASUSER.TESTPETE.DATA.
NOTE: The data set SASUSER.TESTPETE has 113 observations and 40 variables.
