RE: Modify SYSVAL QSYSLIBL

If you attempt to "run" a command from QSYSV4R4M0, you get a diagnostic
message CPD0118, and an escape message of CPF0001.  My thought is that if
you attempted to put this library higher in your library list that QSYS,
you likely might crater your system.  Anyone have thoughts????

Frank,

You wrote, "IBM should prevent the backwards compatibility libs getting
into
the SYSLIBL."

Ya...  I'd say I agree with that...!  Can users implement this through
security if IBM doesn't.  RVKOBJAUT, but then you need a program that
adopts, to run compiles...  Kludge...?  (Which I pronounce kloooodge...;-)

| I dont have a reason as such. One of our programmers
| modified a jobs *LIBL (system portion) with CHGSYSLIBL.
| Could not even do a SYS REQ cancel, or SIGNOFF.
| It is simply something that is very easy to do and
| I suspect will disable the AS400.
| IBM should prevent the backwards compatibility libs
| getting into the SYSLIBL.
