OK all you folks on this here LIST. Please put your thinkin' and rememberin'
hats on. When did IBM first introduce SMP/E to replace SMP4?
SMP/E GA? And when was SMP4 dropped completely (support wise, that is)?
Any other history on this topic would be appreciated.
Yeah, I'm in reminisce mode right now. Sorry?!

SMP/E was introduced at the same time MVS/XA was available. To upgrade
to MVS/XA from MVS/370 without a full sysgen required SMP/E for the
CSECT delete function. SMP/4 didn't have that capability.
I don't remember when SMP/4 become unsupported however.
