I ran a test and was able to RSTLIB over an existing library. I didn't test for desired results of replacing files if they exist, just that the RSTLIB was allowed to proceed.
I'm on V5R4 just in case that makes a difference.

The RSTOBJ does not affect (and is not affected by) the library list. It
was the RSTLIB since the library would have to be deleted (wouldn't it?)
before the RSTLIB. That is, if the library to be restored is TESTLIB and
TESTLIB is in the library list, the DLTLIB would blow off. Wouldn't it?
Or was I just my usual unclear self again?

Oh, I don't know if there's any real good reason for using the RSTOBJ
as opposed to RSTLIB. The only thing that occurred to me is that (a)
I have different profiles for production and test, and (b) on a day
like today I did the restore while in my test profile; I'm just too
callous or lazy to always sign off so the RSTOBJ doesn't care about
the library list.
What about a RSTOBJ is presumed to be affected by Library List [of the
job making that restore request]?
