Re: QLMTUSRLIB Data area Size

1 byte alpha.

>From one of my COMMON presentations:

V5R2:

Each limiting job's usage of the longer library list is controlled by the
contents of the data area QLMTUSRLIB, as found in the job's library list.
If that one byte character data area contains a '0', long library lists are
enabled for that job.  If it contains a '1', the library list is restricted
to 25 libraries.

SCNLIBL - A TAA Tool to Help you Fix Your Code:

There is a TAA Tool, named SCNLIBL, which will analyze your programs using
the Display Command Usage (DSPCMDUSG) command and your program's source,
looking for the usage of the Retrieve Job Attributes (RTVJOBA) command, and
the USRLIBL parameter.  This tool will attempt to determine the length of
the receiving parameter.  Although the tool is not perfect, it provides an
adequate solution.  Detailed documentation about this change can be found

We are planning on upgrading our development machine to V5R2 this week.  We
have not double checked all the programs which maintain the user library
list so I want to use this data area to restrict them to 25 libraries.  The
memo to users says that the data area needs to be created with '1' in the
first character but it does not say how big the data area needs to be.

Is a size of 1 character sufficient?

Thanks,

Gord
