YES
launches a debug image (spdsbased and spdsengd) which will enable a good traceback.
CORE
launches debug images and sets the SPD Server parameter file option for that proxy.
This ensures a good core file.
NO
disables the debug image for the specified proxy, if one is present.
DEBUG= Examples
Launch a debug image and ensure that the LIBNAME proxy creates a core file in the event
of an unexpected process trap:
libname mylib sasspds 'spdsdata' user='denettee' debug=core;
Disable the debug image:
libname mylib sasspds 'spdsdata' user='denettee' debug=no;
ALTPATH=
Description
Enables the use of an alternate binary path that is defined using the ALTBINPATH= option
in the file. The ALTPATH= option will not search through entities in the PATH
environment variable. If ALTPATH= does not find the ALTBINPATH= option specified
in the file, a login failure error is issued. The ALTPATH= option is useful for SPD Server
administrators who want to load a non-production copy of SPD Server (for example, testing
a fix) without having to replace the production copy of SPD Server on a user basis.
Syntax
Use the following arguments:
ALTPATH= YES | NO
YES
enables use of the alternate binary path that is defined in as ALTBINPATH=.
NO
disables the alternate binary path for the specified proxy, if one is present.
ALTPATH= Example
Issue a LIBNAME proxy that uses the alternate binary path that is defined in
ALTBINPATH=:
libname mylib sasspds 'spdsdata' user='denettee' altpath=y;
