We're making the change from LNKAUTH=LNKLST to LNKAUTH=APFTAB.  We've compared

way to determine if the datasets need to be APF-Authorized?  Is there any SMF

APF-Authorized?

Did you install using ServerPac? If so, Modify System Layout has a View and Change option that will display whether APF authorization is required for each data set in the order. It's marked:

 APF Required        APF Authorization Required (Yes or No)

You would need to repeat this display for every order used for the products on the system. (For example, you might need to display APF Required for z/OS, DB2, CICS, IMS, etc.)

For z/OS data sets, there is a table in the Program Directory that documents those required in the APF list, either implicitly (via =LNKLST) or explicitly (via =APFTAB). In the z/OS V2.1 level of the PD it's in Figure 43, which starts on p. 142. The PDF of the V2.1 PD is here: http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/epubs/pdf/e0zpdz00.pdf

However, the list in the PD does not address other products' APF required data sets, only those for z/OS itself. The PD and/or installation guides for the other products should say whether they have APF Required data sets.

Hope this helps...
