In both instances the key message is the T01F3005E and the actual problem is the same.

There are two possible causes.

1. All libraries defined in the STEPLIB of the job must be APF authorized. If this was not done, or the APF authorization is incorrect in some manner, the job will fail.
   
   
2. If the job is running on a system where multiple LPARs are sharing JES, system affinity must be defined so that the job runs on the correct system. Depending on your system, you may need to add this directly after the jobcard:

   /*JOBPARM SYSAFF=xxxx
   where xxxx is the four alphanumeric character system ID of one of the JES2 systems
   in your installation's multi-access spool configuration.

Please see the IBM JCL manual if further clarification is required.
