Problem Note 46778: The error "LIBNAME libref_name IS NOT ASSIGNED" occurs when you code a VOLSER parameter in SAS® 9.3 (TS1M1)
In SAS 9.3 (TS1M1), if you specify in a LIBNAME statement a single-volume serial number that consists of all numbers, you receive the following error:
ERROR: LIBNAME libref IS NOT ASSIGNED.
ERROR: ERROR IN THE LIBNAME STATEMENT.
When you specify the same volume serial in SAS 9.3 (TS1M2) and later, you get the following error:
ERROR: SVC99 error rc=C, reason=035C : IKJ56231I DATA SET sas.library.name NOT ALLOCATED, SYSTEM OR INSTALLATION
ERROR+IKJ56231I TEXT UNIT X'0010' CONTAINS INVALID PARAMETER.
To prevent these errors, enclose the volume serial value inside single or double quotation marks, as in the following example:
LIBNAME OUTDD TAPE sas.library.name UNIT=CART
DISP=(NEW,CATLG,DELETE) LABEL=(2,SL,,,EXPDT=99000) VOLSER='104652';
A fix for this issue is planned for a future software release.
