Override config file parameters

[rmlmrmlm]

Hello.

My original sasv9.cfg file is:

/* Options used when SAS is accessing a JVM for JNI processing */
-JREOPTIONS=(

-DPFS_TEMPLATE=!SASROOT\tkjava\sasmisc\qrpfstpt.xml
-Djava.class.path=path_to_sas_launcher_jar
-Djava.security.auth.login.config=!SASROOT\tkjava\sasmisc\sas.login.config
-Djava.security.policy=!SASROOT\tkjava\sasmisc\sas.policy
-Djava.system.class.loader=com.sas.app.AppClassLoader
-Dsas.app.class.path=path_to_tk_java_jar
-Dsas.ext.config=!SASROOT\tkjava\sasmisc\sas.java.ext.config
-Dsas.jre.libjvm=path_to_jvm_dll
-Dtkj.app.launch.config=path_to_tkjni_picklist
-Dlog4j.configuration=path_to_sas_log4j_properties
-Xms128m
-Xmx128m
)

I just want to change the last 2 parameters to: -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m.

I'm going to change the file:

(..)\Config\Lev1\SASApp\sasv9_usermods.cfg

It's enough to set only these parameters avoiding to write all the others?

My code:

-JREOPTIONS=(

-Xms1024m
-Xmx1024m
)

Afaik not, because xms and xmx aren't two options but part of jreoptions.

Thank you!

So,I must keep the original jreoptions statement in rhe original cfg and
paste it to the usermod.cf file and change those two params to the new
values.

Right?

Hello @rmlmrmlm,

According to the documentation (section "Details", ignore the backslashes in the "Examples") the new values will be appended to the original set of JRE options, provided that both config files are used (cf. How SAS Finds and Processes Configuration Files). You can confirm this by checking the option setting as usual after the SAS session has started:

proc options option=jreoptions;
run;

I assume that the later values override the corresponding earlier ones.

Thank you all

The IT Dept. is restarting the services.

I'll post the result of PROC OPTIONS in a few minutes.
