Of course as soon as I ask....I found it.  In booksrv.80:

BOOKPATH=DCFP.IBM

So never mind & Happy New Year to all.

Subject: z/OS LibraryServer Extended Bookshelf Links

As you may already be aware IBM is only distributing the z/OS 2.1 manuals in 
PDF form via SoftCopy Librarian.  Which leads to my issue:

Opening the bookcase in UNFRAMED View I see all the Extended Bookshelves just 
fine.  When I click on a book shelf I see the contents but each book has a 
question mark icon next to it.  When I click on a link for a specific book the 
link is broken.  The link shows the file name as the bookname.pdf.  For example:

https://bookmanager.bankofamerica.com/bookmgr-cgi/bookmgr.exe/DOWNLOAD/A3208480.pdf?DT=20110522164232&XKS=DCFP.IBM.HAS2CK00.XKSHELF

Note the A3208480.pdf.  If I change that file in the URL to 
DCFP.IBM.A3208480.pdf then the link works.

It seems that the extended shelf link knows the file name but is not attaching 
the file prefix.  I have tried to resolve this with IBM in the past but ...

Does anyone have any experience with LibaryServer and Extended Bookshelf 
support that may be helpful here?  I figure it has to be something in the 
booksrv.80 file but I'll be darned if I can find any documentation on the 
parameters or figure it out from trial and error.
