Actually our naming conventions are
Production MVS.prod.*(.lpar) SYSX.prod.*(.lpar)
(.lpar) if I need LPAR specific datasets
Install/Test MVS.prodVnnn.*
SYSX.prodV99.* which is a linklisted copy of a
MVS.prodVnnn.* load although I could realistically
use SYSX.prod.*.lpar for the sandbox
Assuming the datasets are made large enough I never have to change
linklist/lpalist or JCL/PROCs for production and only occasionally
JCL/PROCs for testing

>Personally I prefer a unique HLQ for ISV datasets in the mastercat
(e.g. SYSX.prodver.*) and non mastercat entries as MVS.prodver.* (for
example).
I don't like versions in LNKLST datasets.
I have no problem with them in maintenance or steplibs.
But, regardless of the HLQ, they should not have versioning in the
production environment, IMO.
