The %RMPDB2DM SAS macro is part of the SAS^® IT Resource Management 3.2 software. It creates a new IT data mart from a SAS IT Resource Management 2.7 performance data warehouse (PDB).

Attempting to use the %RMPDB2DM SAS macro with the DEFAULTROOTPATH= value pointing to a traditional z/OS file system location causes the following error message:

In the above, /u/userid is the home directory for the user invoking the %RMPDB2DM SAS macro, and high-level-qualifier.datamart.root.prefix is the value specified in the DEFAULTROOTPATH= parameter for the traditional z/OS file system location.

To circumvent this error, specify a directory path to a UNIX file system (zFS or HFS) instead of a traditional z/OS file prefix.
