 Posted: Tue Sep 14, 2004 4:33 pm Post subject: How to find out the Versions of Cobol, JCL or any other tool |
 |
|
Hi All,
Is there a TSO command which will list the versions of Cobol, JCL etc being used in a shop. I remember seeing one command, but unable to recall  . This is apart from seeing the info in compile listing or Linker.
Thanks

solitude bliss,
As far as I know there is no single TSO command that will list the version of the software being used on the mainframe system. Tasid written doug nadel gives some information about the operating system, JES versions and CPU's
If you want to list every software installed in the mainframe, then the only way I can think of using SMPE.
Assuming that you are authorized to run jobs agains SMPE CSI datasets, the following JCL will give you the desired results.
| Code: |
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=GIMSMP,REGION=8192K
//SMPCSI DD DSN=ZOS/OS390A.SMPE.GLOBAL.CSI,
// DISP=SHR
//SMPHOLD DD DUMMY
//SMPCNTL DD *
SET BDY(GLOBAL) .
LIST FEATURE.
/*
|
The only caveat with the above approach is that not all products are SMP/E packaged.
As always you can compile a program and look at the listing for the version or even use AMBLIST to query the load module.
| Code: |
//STEP0100 EXEC PGM=AMBLIST
//SYSLIB DD DSN=load module PDS,
// DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
LISTIDR MEMBER=load module name
/*

SHOWMVS is another very informative utility. You can probably get this from CBT.

I could see the following reference on my cobol source listing. Does it mean that our shop is using the COBOL for MVS version 1.2.2.
PP 5688-197 IBM COBOL for MVS & VM 1.2.2
Any more upgrades are done after this ? Any link where can I find the upgradations list in some kind of order ? Is enterprise Cobol (Cobol 370) is the updated version of this ? |
