Problem Note 70978: Pervasive Encryption fails with an error similar to "ERROR 22-7: Invalid option name..."
 |  |  |  |  |
Pervasive Encryption does not work as documented. Instead, it fails with an error similar to the following:
ERROR 22-7: Invalid option name...
The issue is caused by how SAS handles the DSKEYLBL. The SAS libname tokenizer/parser incorrectly detects an ICSF key label name when the label name contains a value similar to CCCCCCCC.NNNNNN, where CCCCCC is a character name and NNNNNN is a number.
Here is an example:
If you run DSKEYLBL=SAMPNAME.12345, then the following error is returned:
ERROR 22-7: Invalid option name 12345.

Pervasive Encryption does not work due to time stamp and release being added to the key label and how SAS handles DSKEYLBL.
