Hi all,

I am getting following error when trying to run the program in test region....

"NOT ABLE TO LOCATE pgm1 IN DSNAME SYS1.LINKLIB "

Is this a problem with the compilation or do I have include any library for this?

thanks in advance

regards
Suma

suma,

Seems like you have not concatenated the correct loadlib in your JCL.

Try executing the job after giving the correct loadlib in the STEPLIB statement in the JCL.

In the message, "SYS1.LINKLIB" probably means the system linklist. The linklist is a concatenation of load libs that are searched when a module is not found in the STEPLIB. SYS1.LINKLIB is one of these libraries, but there are other system and site load libraries, too.

As vivek said, your solution is probably to include your specific library as a STEPLIB.

If the module is actually supposed to come from sys1.linklib, it may be that someone updated it there and the library went to extra extents. If that is the case an LLA refresh might be needed or in some cases a complete IPL. If this really is something that should have come from that data set, talk to the system managers.

A common practice for libraries in the linklist is to not allocate secondary extents. Also programmers/users probably should not be allowed to update any libraries in the linklist.

Thank you all,

I had a problem while pointing to load lib; due this job abending.
Now I added correct loadlib, my job is working as expected.

Thanks
