The symbolic references are in the catalog. We currently have 4 volumes
in our "RESVOL sets" for each image, using &SYSR1 (aka '******'),
&SYSR2, &SYSR3 and &SYSR4. The &SYSR2 - &SYSR4 symbols are defined in
IEASYMxx and resolved at IPL time; the LOADxx member in SYS1.IPLPARM
specifies which IEASYMxx member to use. Where needed, the LNKLST and
APF list entries specify the symbolic volser. Our DDDEFs explicitly
name the volsers: ALTn19, where 0 <= n <= 3.
