John, I might be wrong here, but doesn't the system create the "IPL link list" DEB only when LNKLSTxx is used? I know that when you do use LNKLSTxx you're stuck with the *MASTER* allocation of the volume for the duration of the IPL, but you dont have to use LNKLSTxx - you could use PROGxx instead. I think you wont see any *MASTER* allocations in that case. Gil. On 9/26/05, McKown, John <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > You DO play with fire, don't you? <grin>. The IPL LNKLST cannot be > closed.
