I think Manage/SMF was one of them. Not content to have a very useful
product, they imbedded it into CA-JARS. In the last couple of years it
was been split out again as SMF Director, but they want too many $$$ for
a functionality that most sysprogs developed a workaround for 20 years
ago.

CA acquired ASM2 so long ago that I forgot where they got it from -  but
I don't think CA was the original developer.

I can think of very few products *EVER* developed by CA. Including their
very 1st product CA-SORT.

Their old motto "Software Superior by Design" should have read "Software
Superior by Acquisition"
