Steve, The answer to his question was no. I expanded on some issues he could expect to find - some sooner, some later. He also ought to expect issues with error recovery (although I'm on a system that IS currently supported and we found a very new issue with error recovery just last week... but the difference is that we CAN expect to see a fix sometime relatively soon).
Your post didn't enlighten the user's original request either, it merely took my answers to task. I didn't make assumptions on his Y2K concerns, nor did I make the leap of faith that "he has the license". If he is running his "MVS/SP 3.2.2" system now (which I doubt) then he is trying to mix old (presumably cheap) software with newer, less expensive hardware... I would expect some fallout to come from that combination. Maybe the O.P. will explain his "MVS/SP 3.2.2" designation better. Is is really MVS/ESA 3.1.3 + DFP 3.2, or is it something different?
