It looks like you are trying to join a temporary SAS dataset (work.payments) in a query to Vertica. This could be the cause of your problem. What happens if you remove that join and just have a pure Vertica query?

This code was run earlier without error.This is automated code .After changing configurations like odbc.ini file , this error occured . Is there any possibilty to set up buffersize in odbc connection ?

When you join to SAS data it is likely all of the database data is extracted out to SAS and then joined to the SAS data. This isn't efficient. A better approach is to load the SAS data into the database first, and do all of the joining in the database. When the query was working how long did it take?

We added vertica.ini file in sasenv_local file earlier .After removing this file it works fine.
