SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Usage Note 42460: The -NOJOBSUBMIT option must be used when you install hot fixes for SAS® 9.2 or later in the z/OS operating environment
 |  |  |  |
If you perform an initial installation of SAS® 9.2 or later using the -NOJOBSUBMIT option, you must also install hot fixes using the -NOJOBSUBMIT option in order for the hot fix to be applied successfully.
Executing a hot-fix installation without the -NOJOBSUBMIT option in an environment that was initially installed using the -NOJOBSUBMIT option results in an error similar to the following.
Loading installer for hot fix <hotfixid>
