You actually could do it dynamically (which would override what is in the JES2 JCL), but the syntax is not the most user friendly thing (per another thread it would be nice for this function especially if you could "$ADD PROCLIB,MEMBER=xxxxxxx" to read the $ADD PROCLIB command from a parmlib member). >Are there any other issues I need to think about? > Can't think of any at the moment. Some software products may not "fully" support it. I think I remember issues with some JCL check type products that needed the libraries coded manually in one way or another. But since this has been around since z/OS 1.2 (I think that was it), there should be support by now an any software you are running that needs the PROCLIB concatenation for its own use. -- Mark Zelden Sr. Software and Systems Architect - z/OS Team Lead Zurich North America / Farmers Insurance Group - ZFUS G-ITO mailto:mark.zel...@zurichna.com z/OS Systems Programming expert at http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/ Mark's MVS Utilities: http://home.flash.net/~mzelden/mvsutil.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@bama.ua.edu with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
