DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

A client connecting to a SAS 9.4 SAS/CONNECT or SAS/SHARE server might fail and return the following error:

ERROR: System abend 0C4 occurred outside of the SAS environment.

The problem occurs under the following circumstances:

  • The SAS/CONNECT or SAS/SHARE server is executing SAS 9.4 TS1M2
  • You are using a z/OS release earlier than 2.1, and
  • You connect to the server using Cross Memory Services (the SAS system option COMAMID is set to XMS)

To circumvent this problem, do one of the following:

  • Install SAS 9.4 TS1M2 under z/OS 2.1
  • Use TCP as the communication access method by setting the SAS system option COMAMID to TCP
