The safe way is to copy the IPL pack to another volume. Expand SYS1.LINKLIB
on that pack, and then IPL from that pack after clipping it to the same
volser as you had before. I hope you are not planning on running SMP jobs
agains the live IPL pack. That could lead to disaster. If you applied the
maintenance to a copy of your IPL pack, and SYS1.LINKLIB went into extents,
you could try compressing SYS1.LINKLIB on your alternate IPL pack and seeing
if it fits in 1 extent.

Subject: How to expand SYS1.LINKLIB?
Is there a SAFE way to expand the size of SYS1.LINKLIB? I have a z/OS 1.6
ADCD system where SYS1.LINKLIB is using all of its primary extent. I need
to apply a PTF to a module in LINKLIB but I'm afraid it will cause it to
go
into a secondary extent. Why it was set up with the exact number of tracks
for primary allocation and then given a secondary allocation I'll never
know. There is a one pack IPL-able system on the ADCD I could use but it
will take quite a bit to set it up. Is there an easier (and safe) way to
expand SYS1.LINKLIB?
