Not quite the result I was hoping for ...

If I am reading this correct, I am being stopped because I don't have
read access to SYS1.PARMLIB.B

Sheesh! I've never understood what some sysprog's think is so "secret" about the contents of parmlib. IMHO, UACC(NONE) for parmlib is more draconian paranoia than anything else. But, that's a discussion for another thread...

I recreated your issue by giving one of my userids ACCESS(NONE) to SYS1.PARMLIB (which is UACC(READ) BTW). I get the following:

IEC150I 913-38,IFG0194E,JOEUSER,$IKJE440,SYS00116-0003,2000,Z9RES1,SYS1.PARMLIB

The "SYS00116-0003" means a concatenation is being being opened and the failure in the 3rd data set in the concatenation. I looked at my LOADxx member in IPLPARM and I see:

PARMLIB  one.data.set
PARMLIB  another.data.set                             ******
PARMLIB  SYS1.PARMLIB                                 ******

SYS1.PARMLIB is the 3rd data set specified via PARMLIB statements. Coincidence? I doubt it. (The IEFPRMLB service requires READ access to all parmlibs in the concatenation.)

Here's the best part. Ready for this? Are you sitting down?? You want to know what the big "super secret" contents of IPCSPR00 are??? .....................

(I feel like I'm revealing corporate secrets here... Do I need a license to operate this thing??)

In the absence of being able to READ parmlib in the "People's Republic of UHC", I would say the best alternative is to follow the "alternate parmlib" procedure (see link below) -- what Mark (one of the "good" sysprogs) has already alluded to -- and see how far you get ...
