have in a shared parmlib IEASYS00 member OPI=NO 
...
IEASYS LIST = (00,SA,20) (OP)

Mark's IPLINFO rexx shows 
OPI=YES, Default 
</snip>

The OPI setting is reset as each IEASYSxx is processed, and it defaults to 
"YES".
So as each IEASYSxx member is processed, its OPI value is set as the 
single OPI value that can be displayed after IPL. That is what is going 
on. That has little to do with what OPI=xxx values were in effect for the 
set of IEASYSxx members.

So yes if for some reason you want the display to show "NO" then you will 
need OPI=NO in the last IEASYSxx. But that provides no useful information 
for cases where you have multiple IEASYSxx's.  Only by manual examination 
can you see that all IEASYSxx's had OPI=NO in effect (and that no 
individual IEASYSxx parameter had specified OPI).

If your audit wants to know that there was no use of OPI=YES (or OPI for 
an individual parameter), you're not going to be have a happy auditor 
unless they're willing to examine all the IEASYSxx's that were identified 
as being used.
