Isn't a STEPLIB opened before the program is loaded? Does the DCB used in that open override the JCL and/or the DSCB?
----------------------------------<unsnip>------------------------------
Program Fetch uses the directory data and the control data imbedded in the load module to do its I/O at a channel program level. As long as it's a valid LMOD, the DCB info is completely meaningless to Fetch. IIRC, the DCB it uses is a "skeleton" DCB similar to that used during EXCP or XDAP processing. As long as it has a valid DEB, that's what really matters.
