A hard link? In VMS terms, a hard link would be a result of a $ SET
FILE/ENTER, which would not accept a Posix path specification (except
you have extended parsing enabled and use the ^UP^ prefix, whcih you
don't indicate, here). Do you mean a symbolic link? Actually, the
image activator doesn't care how RMS resolves hard or soft links,
whatever is needed. But if RMS fails, the image activation fails. It
seems you have a logical name pointing to a shareable image in a
directory which itself is a soft or hard link to another directory. It
seems much easier to just copy the shareable image to sys$share (aka
sys$library).
