Problem Note 47922: The VERBOSE option leads to incorrect behavior when specified in a concatenated configuration file in SAS® 9.3 in a z/OS environment
 |  |  |  |
In SAS 9.3 under z/OS, if you have concatenated configuration files and one of those files contains the VERBOSE option, the options that are in the same configuration file as the VERBOSE option are not displayed. This is true even if the other options are listed after VERBOSE in the configuration files. If the configuration file is concatenated with subsequent files, these options are displayed in the VERBOSE output.
For example, with the following CONFIG allocation, if the VERBOSE option is coded in the CONFIG2 file, only the options in CONFIG3 are displayed in the VERBOSE output.
//CONFIG DD DSN=CONFIG1,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=CONFIG2,DISP=SHR // DD DSN=CONFIG3,DISP=SHR
