Usage Note 36619: SAS 6.09E (zOS) libraries can be migrated to SAS 9.1.3 with the MIGRATE procedure
This note clarifies a restriction in the Base SAS 9.1.3 Procedures Guide regarding SAS 6.09E libraries that were created under z/OS.
In the Procedures Guide, the "Overview" topic for PROC MIGRATE states that "a library from SAS 6.09E (OS/390 or z/OS) or SAS 6.12 (UNIX, Windows, OpenVMS Alpha) and later" can be migrated to SAS 9.1. However, the "Syntax" topic has a restriction that contradicts this statement because it does not mention SAS 6.09E libraries from z/OS.
The "Overview" topic contains the correct information. For SAS 6.09E libraries that were created under z/OS (OS/390), you do not have to convert the libraries to SAS 6.12 before you migrate them with PROC MIGRATE.
