SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 50170: In SAS® 9.4, the -INHERITANCE parameter is no longer valid for the z/OS spawner
 |  |  |  |
Beginning with SAS 9.4, you can no longer use the -INHERITANCE option in a SAS/CONNECT® spawner PARMS file. Socket inheritance is now the default behavior.
Coding the -INHERITANCE option in your SAS/CONNECT spawner PARMS file causes this error to appear when you start the spawner:
ERROR: An unknown command line option inheritance was specified. Review the doc for resolution.
To circumvent this error, delete the -INHERITANCE option from your spawner PARMS file.
