Actually, I believe someone has it a little reversed. If the Data Set is listed in APF list, it is authorized and will be so in the LINKLST, BUT if you add that same data set to //STEPLIB, then ALL the data sets listed in //STEPLIB must be APF authorized, if even 1 is not authorized, then ALL are not. Remember for APF, both the Data Set Name and the Volume or SMS if it is SMS managed, MUST MATCH!

Do you have to STEPLIB all libraries for CICS, even if they're in the LINKLIST? We're running 5.2 of CICS and z/OS 2.20. For instance, do SCEERUN, SCEERUN2, RACF (or ACF2) have to be in the STEPLIB? I'm being told this is because they all have to be APF authorized and you lose that with the linklist. All the appropriate libraries are APF authorized. I supposed I could create a little vanilla system and be certain, but I was sort of hoping someone would know. ... and if the answer is yes, shame on IBM for making me do that. Anne R.
