Macros and Parallel processing linux

vapodaca11 — Thu, 11 Oct 2018 20:54:06 GMT

I am able to start the parallel processing procedure but it is failing to bring over my macro variables. I am using the %syslput _all command to bring them over. This is usuing a Linux based system. Does anyone know how I could bring over my Marco variables in parallel processing?

Please post a complete example of your code. Did you SIGNON first before using %SYSLPUT?

It appears that it is not bringing in any of my macro variables.

Code I am using:
signon task&threadnum inheritlib=(risk);

rsubmit wait=no log="&basedir./task&threadnum..log" output="&basedir./task&threadnum..lst";

%syslput _all_;
%put _all_;

data risk.servings_thread&threadnum._&scenario (keep=scenario estnum lotnum servnum serving_conc serving_weight serving_cfu random);
set risk.lots_&scenario (where=(&beginest <= estnum <= &endest));...................

Error I am getting:

WARNING: Apparent symbolic reference THREADNUM not resolved.

This should work. You are copying local macro variables up to your RSUBMIT server session.

signon task&threadnum inheritlib=(risk);

%syslput _all_;

rsubmit wait=no log="&basedir./task&threadnum..log" output="&basedir./task&threadnum..lst";

%put _all_;

endrsubmit;
