I seem a bit late, entering this thread, but I've become "open" and "multiplatform" and "enterprise integration technologied" at SeUGI last week !
To find out where the "sasautos" exist, issue the pathname function in a data step or open macro statement, like appears in this snip from my mainframe SAS display manager log window, following statement  %put %sysfunc( pathname(sasautos));

NOTE: The initialization phase used 0.04 CPU seconds and 2863K.
1    %put %sysfunc( pathname(sasautos));
MVS.SAS.AUTOLIB

so it appears that the pds holding the sasauto macros is MVS.SAS.AUTOLIB

And on win v6.12, the same code applies, but with far more output !
1    %put %sysfunc( pathname(sasautos));
c:\Program Files\SAS\af\sasmacro  c:\Program Files\SAS\assist\sasmacro
c:\Program Files\SAS\base\sasmacro  c:\Program Files\SAS\calc\sasmacro
c:\Program Files\SAS\sascbt\sasmacro  c:\Program Files\SAS\connect\sasmacro
C:\Program Files\SAS\core\sasmacro

In v8 on os390
NOTE: The initialization phase used 0.10 CPU seconds and 5951K.
1     %put %sysfunc( pathname(sasautos));
MVS.SAS.V80.AUTOLIB

So it seems fair to expect this to apply across all recent versions and platforms !

Shiling,

Submit some SAS job and look at at it in SDSF. Type 'l' or '?' next to your
job name, press <enter> and select JESJCL entry. Do a find on AUTOLIB,
because SAS autocall library (PDS) is usually called something like
SYS*.SAS.V8*.AUTOLIB. It is also usual to find SASHELP and SASMSG libraries
right beneath it. If you want to add your own autocall library to this one,
simply use

//SASAUTOS DD DSN=SHILING.AUTOLIB,DISP=SHR

after the JCL line containing EXEC.

Oh yeah, and welcome to the rough world of real computers.

Kind regards,
