IEALPAxx could load something in MLPA. > Just a thought - write an SMP/E USERMOD to REPLACE the IBM-supplied ICHRIN03 in SYS1.LPALIB. Pro: it eliminates the duplication and LPA load sequencing issue. Cons: You have to write and maintain MCS, and re-install for every OS upgrade (but PRO: *if* IBM ever changes the format, you find out before the first IPL); and if you're a multi-system environment, a USERMOD is tough to maintain if the table is not common across all systems.
