There are two ways:

1) update your current PROGxx member with the new dsn / volser, then
issue the command:
        T PROG=xx

2) create a new PROGnn member with the new dsn / volser, issue the
command:
        T PROG=nn
   Merge the changes into the IPL PROGxx member later.

3) Update the current PROGxx member, but issue the command:
        SETPROG APF,ADD,DSN=new.dataset.name,VOL=volser

I use option #3 as it does not put any extraneous members in PARMLIB.

Just to be a bit more complete, you can also remove APF authorization
on-the-fly with:

        SETPROG APF,DELETE,DSN=old.dataset.name,VOL=volser

That's just in case you get a "finger check" like I sometimes do.
