What occurs to me is to put the library (DSN) containing SAS on the
linklist only on the LPAR that you want to allow it to run on. Then,
create a RACF profile for that DSN which has a UACC(NONE) and almost
nobody on the access list. This would allow access via the LNKLST on
that LPAR, but deny access via a STEPLIB or JOBLIB.

I've not tried this, but I think it should work.
