APF Authorized Programs from Unauthorized STEPLIB or JOBLIB

Without CA Compress, trying to execute an authorized module from STEPLIB or JOBLIB causes a 306 abend if the system is unable to find a copy of the module in linklist. If PST preallocation is involved, the 306 abend can occur before the search of linklist. Since an unexpected copy of the module is likely to be run when the 306 abend does not occur, ensure that JOBLIB or STEPLIB is authorized if you intend to run APF authorized programs.

A linklist library is NOT authorized in a STEPLIB or JOBLIB concatenation unless you explicitly APF authorize it.
