Problem Note 68348: Trying to use a SAS® created scoring or format user-defined function (UDF) might generate errors with Netezza 11.2.1 or later
 |  |  |  |  |
Trying to use one of the following User-Defined Functions (UDF) related to SAS formats and scoring might generate an error:
- SAS_COMPILEUDF
- SAS_DIRECTORYUDF
- SAS_HEXTOTEXTUDF
- SAS_PUT
- Scoring UDFs that have a name of modelname_EM_outputvarname (Here is an example: myscore_em_classification, myscore_em_probability)
The error might look similar to the following:
Error opening UDX file /nz/data.1.0/base/3601925/udf/3609771.oh: /nz/data.1.0/base/3601925/udf/3609771.oh: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
The following macros create 32-bit Netezza UDFs:
- %INDNZ_PUBLISH_MODEL with MECHANISM=static
- %INDNZ_PUBLISH_FORMATS
- %INDNZ_PUBLISH_JAZLIB
- %INDNZ_PUBLISH_COMPILEUDF
Starting with Netezza 11.2.1, the issue occurs due to a requirement that all Netezza UDFs have to be 64-bit.
To access the Netezza 64-bit In-DB Binaries, click the Downloads tab in this note.
The Netezza 64-bit In-DB Binaries will address the format publishing but not the static scoring. The workaround for scoring is to use the SAS® Embedded Process.
