I have been in shops where there is a "standard user loadlib chain"
managed by LLA (separate from  the system linklist).
Linklist was specified in IEASYS00 as PROG=(00,UU).
In my case, the list was "standard" and an F LLA,UPDATE=UU was issued by
automation every 15 minutes to allow for program migrations throughout
the day.

HTH,

This is puzzling to me.  Are you advocating having JOBLIB/STEPLIBs that
specify every single library that your particular jobs needs to access?
This seems to me to be (no offense) nuts!  I am of the total opposite
inclination.  I would much prefer to have a "system search chain", as it
were, that contains all of the libraries that have load modules that
need to be executed.  As a developer I, in fact, would prefer to have
our application loadlib's also in LINKLIST.  The only reason I gave up
on asking for that is because of the whole "need to refresh the LLA"
thing.  VSE is so much simpler in this regard.  There is a "permanent
search chain" that has all of the standard "load libraries" in it.
Things such as TCP/IP, DB2, DL/I, etc., as well as our production
application library.  Then in your job's JCL if you wanted, say, to
execute the test version of a program which needs to call the production
version of a subroutine you need only specify an "override" library.
This li!
 brary will be searched first, and if a module is not found then it will
search the system search chain.
