Looking at my z/OS 1.12 system the only VTAM  I find in LINKLIST is 
CPAC.VTAMLIB in the distributed PROG00 - LNKLST00.

It's only member USSTAB is not referenced by any of my definitions, only 
by the TEST system in CPAC.VTAMLST.

The  PROG00 in the CPAC.PARMLIB of old 1.10 system is the same, I would 
guess that it has been this way for years.

I second that and confirm I have never seen VTAMLIB in a LINKLST either. 
To be sure, I searched the z/OS 1.12 Communications Server bookshelf (
http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/Shelves/F1A1BKC1) for 
LINKLST, and only found a reference to RIT for NCP.

So it seems the VTAMLIB DD would be referenced, not the LINKLST one.

John,

I have never heard of putting VTAMLIB in the linklist and never did 
it in the 20++ years I was in the business.
