INFO: SAS Log Messages

nrk1787db1 — Fri, 28 Oct 2016 16:05:18 GMT

Hi,

SAS is writing below messages for every observation which is getting processed while performing a business logic.

The number of observations getting processed is in millinons so below messages are also written to SASLOG that many million times.

INFO: Index PK_TBLROW0X selected for WHERE clause optimization.       
INFO: Use of index PK_TBLROW0X for WHERE clause optimization canceled.

Is there any way we can suppress log messages issued by SAS which start with "INFO:" ?

I suspect you've got MSGLEVEL=I set somewhere. Set MSGLEVEL=N (or let it default) instead.

Set the options as

options msglevel=N;
