Hello All,
Are there any way to track the invalid parmlib member. IEASYS00 can point
me to the genuine members but I am just interested to know if any tools
that can help me to track down the invalid or unused parmlib members ?
Any suggestions or advise are much appreciated.

There is a tool that verifies your parmlib. have a look at NEWARE website.
IBM supplies some checks, for example for the LOADxx member. See

I now see a total of 92 records in the dataset. The dataset is 100 tracks,

The explanation for message IKJ56584I is:
A CLIST or REXX exec to be implicitly executed could not be found because the

I don't believe the CPP0628001S message is relevant to your problem.
It is possible that the driving system had a different TSO logon proc that
