Hi,
Sorry to dig up an old topic, but I was trying to do the same and this came up in my search results. I eventually found a workaround that I thought was worth sharing.
If you were to run
proc spdo library=<LIB>;
cluster list <TABLE>;
quit;
then if <TABLE> is a cluster, the macro &spdslist will be populated with a list of the members. If <TABLE> is NOT a cluster, &spdslist is still created but will be blank, but unfortunately the procedure will error. What I did was to redirect the log with proc printto statements immediately before and after proc spdo, to mask the error, then test the value of &spdslist to determine what to do next. It's not the cleanest solution, but it worked for me!
Thank you. That certainly sounds a neater way, although when I tried it I got the message that dictionary.clusters was not a valid dictionary table name. Perhaps that's an issue with my current client's setup, but I'll certainly try it in future.
