Hello,
on our system we have IPL once per 4 months. Several changes/upgrades/patches happen in this time frame.
I am looking for an easy way that will compare the currently active linklist with the one that will be activated at the IPL.
This way I would like to prevent any missing or any extra library in the list.
Same would be nice for APF, LPA, LLA.
DO you know about any such CLIST that would do the magic?

You want to get "file" 492 (and, also, perhaps "file" 614) from http://www.cbttape.org. After the data sets from these "files" have been installed they will display the current status of LPA and LINKLIST along with a whole bunch of other information. If you save these reports and rerun them after your updates have been applied and you have IPLed you should see any significant changes.
