The way you get USER.LPALIB first is to specify it in SYSLIB LPALIB in your PROGxx member. Then you must explicitly include SYS1.LPALIB in your LPALSTxx member (I always put it first there). > So, I renamed the bogus IEEU29 to IEEU29BG (for bogus), reipled and away go my SMF datasets. You can have used PROGxx to delete / re-add the exit from the proper library without IPLing... regardless of LPA list order. You can load it from the library you want in PROGxx at IPL time - even if you don't use the SYSLIB override I wrote about above.
