Issue/Introduction

ACF2 library ACFMOD has been replaced with CAX1LOAD.

Does ACF2 library CAX1LOAD need to be in the linklist or APF authorized?

Environment

Release:
Component: ACF2MS

Resolution

There is one LINKLST, one LPALIST and one library used for linking exits created at part of the ACF2 installation:                                                             
                                                                          
your.install.CAX1LINK is LINKLST Library                                           
your.install.CAX1LPA is LPALIST Library    
your.install.CAX1LOAD is a 'linkules' library used for linking exits.
                                                                          
your.install.CAX1LINK. This library must be added to the active link list (LNKLSTnn) of the target z/OS system, or the software must be copied  from CAI.CAILOAD to a library in the active link list and must be APF authorized.                                                               
                                                                          
your.install.CAX1LPA. This library must be added to the active link pack area list (LPALSTnn) at the target z/OS system, or the software must be copied from the CAI.CAILPA to a library in the active LPA list.         
                                                                          
The your.install.CAX1LOAD library replaces the former ACFMOD library.  It is just a subset of linkules used for linking user exit code and or application interfaces (API's). It does not need to be APF authorized or in the linklist.

The your.install.CAX1LINK and your.install.CAX1LOAD should not be combined into one library.
