Hi list,

I just added an FTP exit to a user loadlib that has a DSN (VTOC entry) of 
SYS2.LINKLIB.Z19. This dataset is assigned a SYMBOLICRELATE alias of 
SYS2.LINKLIB to facilitate z/OS-release-independent accesses.

FTP Server requires access to the FACILITY called BPX.DAEMON which, in turn, 
requires that its exits reside in a "controlled" dataset.

I therefore want to RDEFINE   PROGRAM   FT*   ADDMEM(dataset-name//PADCHK)

I strongly suspect (but have not tested) that specifying the alias name of 
SYS2.LINKLIB is not going to produce the desired effect because the OPENed DSN 
(in LNKLST) is SYS2.LINKLIB.Z19 (i.e. the alias was resolved by OPEN and then 
forgotten).

I have tried specifying a static system symbol (&MVSDSNQ = .Z19) as part of the 
DSN - ADDMEM('SYS2.LINKLIB&MVSDSNQ'//PADCHK) - but RACF didn't accept that.

Am I stuck having to specify a full-qualified "truename" and change the MEMBER 
segments of all PROGRAM resources every time I upgrade?

Cheers,
Alan
