In each case, the first two digits are the version and release. >"SMPLIST OUTPUT" means the output of SMP/E like : >1PAGE 0002 - NOW SET TO GLOBAL ZONE DATE 07/31/07 TIME 12:35:26 >SMP/E 34.18 SMPLIST OUTPUT > That should be V3R4+ IIRC, V3R4 is a no-charge download for all currently supported releases of z/OS.
