Thanks to everyone that contributed! As suggested, SETLOAD was the way to go for me. I once again have a properly sized SYS1.PARMLIB. However, while reviewing SETLOAD documentation, questions spring to mind: Do you folks concatenate your SYSx.IPLPARM (if you use it) to PARMLIB in LOADxx?
I was also curious if IEFPRMLB could be made to include by default the PDS where LOADxx was found at IPL time, much like it includes by default SYS1.PARMLIB. I've recently taken to using LOADxx found in SYSx.IPLPARM on the IODF volume instead of finding LOADxx in SYS1.PARMLIB. When I first issued my SETLOAD command, it failed because I didn't specify DSN=SYSx.IPLPARM as I should have, because at this time, I don't concatenate SYSx.IPLPARM. I know, how I concatenate PARMLIB is my choice, but I'd hate to be viewed as 'out there' if this isn't considered standard practice! ;) I don't know if I'm OCD, but I like having any/all of my LOADxxs found in one place. I happen to choose SYSx.PARMLIB for that. I've also considered creating a SYS1.LLA.PARMLIB (and system specific SYS1.LLA.PARMLIBs) to contain CSVLLAxx members, excluding CSVLLA00. I guess there's a line to draw between being organized and easily maintainable. Thanks again for being the group that you are!
