The Undisplayable Message
I was working on a V2R1M1 machine and needed the library QSYS2 to be in all of the user's library lists. I figured that since this was a system library, what better place to put it than the system portion of the library list? I changed system value QSYS-LIBL so QSYS2 would always be available to the users and would not be replaced by most applications.
A problem occurred when a user had added QSYS2 to the library list of her job description. When the user tried to sign on, she got the following message, right at the sign-on display:
CPF1136 Duplicate entries in library list for ___.
The problem here is that you cannot display second-level text for this message from the sign-on display, since the sign-on display does not allow you to use the Help key.
What happened is that the system used the job description's initial library list, which included QSYS2, but found that the same library was already in the system portion of the library list, resulting in a duplicate library name. All we needed to do was change this user's job description, removing QSYS2. - Stephen Villanueva
