You may also want to check on the Blksize of the libraries and place the larger one first if they are different. <SNIP> That particular restriction or issue was removed LONG ago. However, I have been reading the posts on this, and I think you may want to review all files in the LNKLST and ensure that that they are allocated as only PRIMARY space. I say this because I ran into a similar problem many years ago. The library that was implicated as being bad (and that vendor's code) was a victim. The immediately preceding PDS had gone to an extra extent (all of 1 track). I can't recall the goofy reason why it happened, but it wasn't until some rarely used function was used that we realized that the cause was that PDS had expanded by 1 track during the life of that IPL... We tried refreshing LLA, VLF, etc., but until you dropped the whole linklist and picked up a new one (or IPLed), you were going to have problems. And so, this is why I tell people to do their allocations for LNKLST or CICS as only a primary, no secondary, CONTIG. And make the primary space at least 25% larger than the used space once it is compressed (especially so CICS).
