My bad, forgot to mention that I use PROGxx to specify the first dataset
in LPA concatenation and LPALSTxx for the rest.
The concatenation will end up as
SYS1.MVS.LPALIB (Mine for exits ACTRT, UJV, UJI, etc.)
PRODUCT.LPALIB
SYS1.LPALIB (IBM's)
No duplication in SYS1.MVS.LPALIB and PRODUCT.LPALIB.

One question in all this: Are you using LPALSTxx or PROGxx to define
your LPA? Your original mail mentioned LPALST, which if you use
LPALSTxx, any libraries you specify will be automatically concatenated
to SYS1.LPALIB, even if you don't specify it. If you use PROGxx, you
can specify a different dataset to be first in the concatenation but if
you don't it will default to SYS1.LPALIB.
My read on this is, unless you change the default in a PROGxx member,
SYS1.LPALIB will be searched before any libraries you specify a LPA
libraries. Since the first occurance of a module name is the one used,
this means that the MODULE1 will be picked up from SYS1.LPALIB before it
ever reads PRODUCT.LPALIB. Also, you may have to specify the alias name
if you use PROGxx.
HTH. Someone correct me if I've misread the book.

I have an LPALST concatenation
PRODUCT.LPALIB
SYS1.LPALIB
In PRODUCT.LPALIB is MODULE1 (no alias)
In SYS1.LPALIB is MODULE1 with alias ALIAS1
After IPL (with CLPA of course) I can get to MODULE1 but not to ALIAS1.
Because MODULE1 is a duplicate I expect to get it from PRODUCT.LPALIB
(which I do) because it is first in the concatenation. But because
ALIAS1 is not a duplicate I would expect to still be able to get to it
even if it is from SYS1.LPALIB.
Can anyone confirm that ALIAS1 should be dropped because of the
duplicate of MODULE1?
Thanks all
