Many companies will run backup programs at night when they have large
datasets.  You may need to talk to your system adminsitrator and let
them know you are running your program.  If they disconnect you in any
way, or take the data you are using for backup, you will get an I/O
error.  Any time SAS tries to reach a file and the connection can no
longer be made, you get an I/O error.  Your system Admin should be
able to exempt your files from backup until your program is finished
running
