Asked by Anonymous - Sas Sort : Sorting large data sas data sets: Help !! Example:: My file has 1,200,495,344 rec. Error i am getting is ERROR: SORT DID NOT COMPLETE SUCCESSFULLY. SEE MESSAGES ON THE JOB CONSOLE LOG OR //SYSOUT DATA SET. ERROR: HOST SORT CANNOT BE USED.

Anonymous Says: I think everytime I have had a sort error like that when using sas was due to space related issues, sas tends to give different types of error messages.  With so little info its just a guess.
