Resolution
Review contents of PROGxx or IEAAPFxx members in SYS1.PARMLIB. If you have multiple versions of a library (for example SYS1.LINKLIB) with different volumes specified in a single member, you may want to change the entries to just one entry with VOLUME(******). This special value means to only use the library that is on the SYSRES volume (IPL VOLUME).
