Sorry, I am doing a terrible job explaining this. The "outside of SMP/E" link job doesn't do the link directly by invoking HEWL, but rather by invoking SMP/E with
SET BOUNDARY(TARGET) . LINK LMODS CALLLIBS . So it's "outside of SMP/E" in the sense of being *submitted* outside of the APPLY/ACCEPT process, but it *does* invoke SMP/E. Does that help? Or make it worse?

Ok, so if I understand correctly, you have an SMP/E packaged product that includes a load module. That load module was created using SMP/E without an alias that it should have. You then link that load module outside of SMP/E to include an IBM component. Here are more questions. Was the load module linked correctly by SMP/E? I assume not because you seem to have identified that the JCLIN was missing the alias. When you link the module after APPLY outside of SMP/E, do you link it back into the SMP/E target library or into another PDS? In any case, the JCLIN that you provide to SMP/E for this LMOD will not cause the second link outside of SMP/E to have the alias. -- Tom Marchant ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@listserv.ua.edu with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
