The short answer to this is that it's not possible. If you look through
the archives, the topic of identifying a module's source has come up
repeatedly, without satisfactory solution. The basic problem is that zOS
has more options for loading modules, even of modules that don't exist
before or after execution; a single load request may be satisfied from a
concatenation of (user) libraries, or from system libraries, or from
storage.
If you go to www.cbttape.org you will find thousands of contributed
programs. There are some that will analyze JCL libraries, and provide
module and library information (but limited when symbolic parameters are
used). This will give you a list of modules on EXEC PGM= operands. But a
module may be loaded from a library other than one appearing on a JOBLIB
or STEPLIB DD, so that alone doesn't help.
If you look at SMF records, again they will provide PGM= information,
but not the library. And modules that are loaded dynamically won't show
up anywhere.
It is possible to modify zOS (dynamically and temporarily) so that it
intercepts all requests to load modules, and there may be something on
the CBT for that. I also think that there may be commercial packages
that include this capability, but I've never used one.
One inexpensive, but not foolproof way, would be to get a directory
listing for your load libraries, and see if any of the member names
appear in load module text (messy and error prone).
