SUPPORT / SAMPLES & SAS NOTES
Problem Note 68996: The CVP engine fails on a z/OS system when you use a remote submit block of code in SAS® 9.4M3 (TS1M3) and later
 |  |  |  |  |
When you execute an RSUBMIT block of code that uses the character variable padding (CVP) engine with a Generation Data Group (GDG) or a standard sequential file, it fails with an error that is similar to one of the following:
ERROR: DCB attributes incorrect for library data set ABCDEF.BLAH.
ERROR: Error 9 reading library data set ABCDEF.GDG.G0005V00 to retrieve LAAS
Here is an example of code that uses the CVP engine and experiences this problem:
rsubmit;
filename UWV_best 'ABCDEF.GDG(0)';
libname UWV cvp "%sysfunc(pathname(UWV_best))";
options compress=binary;
proc download infile=UWV outfile="C:\Temp\File.out" binary;
run;
endrsubmit;
filename UWV_best 'ABCDEF.GDG(0)';
libname UWV cvp "%sysfunc(pathname(UWV_best))";
options compress=binary;
proc download infile=UWV outfile="C:\Temp\File.out" binary;
run;
endrsubmit;
