The issue with PDSE in the linklist is related to any PDSE that is in the IPL linklist gets an tag to (I think it is ) XCFAS so that if you whish to do dynamic maintenance to a product you can take the existing library out of the linklist, but can't rename etc. You would then need to use a new Library name to put the product back into linklist.
If you are not in the habit of doing dynamic maintenance the PDSE in the IPL linklist isn't an issue, and if you can use different names it's also not an issue. -- Jerry Whitteridge IBM Global Services Delivery Manager e-Mail: [email protected] Cell: 602 527 4871 <---- Note New Phone Number IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> wrote on 12/18/2017 11:17:01 AM: > From: Seymour J Metz <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Date: 12/18/2017 11:17 AM > Subject: Re: Cobol upgrade 6.2 linklist > Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <[email protected]> > > It used to be that you couldn't have PDSE in LNKLSTxx, but could add > a PDSE with an automatic SETPROG command.
