Don, To make sure I understand, you created JCL that uses a STEPLIB or JOBLIB that points to DSN=X. However X is an alias for DSN=Y. The job fails if the dataset is NOT APF Authorized. Is that correct? If so, could you provide the following 1) What level of z/OS? 2) Are there any additional libraries in STEPLIB or JOBLIB? 3) What is it failing with (S047, S106??)
