I also mentioned that work around to some people at the shop. But taking the entire LNKLST ENQ away from 9 systems in the sysplex just to copy the product to the "ISV sysres", even for a few minutes, is worse than letting it fail and renaming the lib / deleting it with ISPF (at least in my view). Of course we can plan and re-name / delete ahead of time or use other tools I have to do that all in batch before the copy. I've just never needed to do this with FDR for over 30 years of having ISV datasets (or IBM program products) as an extension of the sysres set. Hence the RFE. I don't know what FDR does behind the scenes to accomplish this, but it does without any issue.
