PDSE always counts as 1 extent in the LNKLST, so if it takes an extent and you REFRESH / UPDATE LLA, you will pick up the changes. If you run with a large LNKLST that is running close to the 255 extent limit, this could help you out (if you like running with secondaries in the LNKLST and update the libraries). >Also, if SMS stuff is supposed to be active for PDSE, what happens to a >LLA version during IPL? > Not sure if I understand the qustion. Are you confusing LNKLST with LLA? LLA is not active during NIP. There is support in NIP to process a PDSE in the LNKLST.
