This is no longer a technical issue. It is political. RMF III has a degradation analyzer built it. By dataset IIRC.
Meanwhile, keep pushing for some supporting doc from the programmer. Insist that you can't take the problem to IBM without such. Use this as a justification to acquire a product such as STROBE. You need hard numbers.
