Problem Note 6609: PROC SOURCE abends when processing many members
PROC SOURCE provides an easy way to back up and process source library
data sets. In Release 8.1 TS1M0, running PROC SOURCE against many
members, such as 50,000 or more, may cause the following messages to be
generated in the SAS Log:
ERROR: Out of memory.
ERROR: Unable to open member=XXXXXXXX.
In addition, the JES log may show a S878, S922, or S80A abend.
