is the name of the module that contains an ARM agent, which
is a program module that contains a vendor's implementation of the ARM API.
The maximum length for the module name in z/OS environments is eight characters.
An ARM agent is an executable module that contains a vendor's
implementation of the ARM API. The ARM agent is a set of executable routines
that are called from an application. The ARM agent and SAS run concurrently.
The SAS application passes transaction information to the ARM agent, which
collects and manages the writing of the ARM records to the ARM log. SAS, as
well as other vendors, provide an ARM agent.
By default, SAS uses the SAS ARM agent. Use ARMAGENT= to specify another
vendor's ARM agent in order to monitor both the internal SAS processing transactions
(using ARMSUBSYS=) as well as for user-defined transactions (using ARM macros).
