Setting up the APF-authorized system link list data set (SEQABMOD)

Note: This chapter is not applicable to IBM® Developer z/OS® (non-Enterprise Edition) or IBM Z and Cloud Modernization Stack (Wazi Code).
You must make certain z/OS Debugger load modules available in an APF-authorized data set that is in the system link list concatenation. You can do this in one of the following ways, depending on your site policy:
  • Mark and add the load modules by doing the following steps:
    1. Mark the hlq.SEQABMOD data set as APF-authorized.1
    2. Add the data set to the system link list concatenation.1
    3. If you have earlier releases of z/OS Debugger installed, remove any other SEQABMOD data sets.
    4. Do an LLA refresh to make the members in hlq.SEQABMOD available to z/OS Debugger.
  • Copy the load modules and refresh the members by doing the following steps:
    1. Copy2 all the members of the hlq.SEQABMOD data set into an existing APF-authorized system link list data set.
    2. Do an LLA refresh to make these members available to z/OS Debugger.
1 To add a data set to the link list, add a LNKLST ADD statement for the data set to a PROGxx member of parmlib that is used for IPL. To immediately add a data set to the link list, use the SETPROG LNKLST MVS command. Then, if the link list data set is managed by LLA, enter a F LLA,REFRESH MVS command to refresh the Library Lookaside Directories.
2 If you do this copy, you must repeat this copy after you apply any service to z/OS Debugger. SMP/E does not do this copy for you.
