Hi Peter,
How about this situation ...
I am part of a team of people who plan maintenance upgrades many months in advance.
There is no possibility of IPL (for many of the maintenance upgrades).
All Batch is held (other than implementation jobs); DFSMShsm, CICS, IMS and DB2 are down.
TSO is limited to implementers.
SCSQAUTH (an MQ LNKLSTd Dataset) is emptied, its contents replaced and LLA is REFRESHd. MQ, CICS, IMS and DB2 are started and tested by implementers and then by the customer. After everyone signs off, it's back to "business as usual" and Batch is restarted.

Do you see any holes in this approach?

Thanks and regards,
David

You delete members (let alone delete all members) from any LNKLST data set
at your own risk. If you're going to do that, you'd better not have LLA
active.
Maybe you get away with it with LLA up and a refresh. That doesn't mean it
worked or didn't leave you undesirably exposed.
