MVSCP became available in SP 2.2.0 I think MVSCP was mandatory in SP 2.2.0. Looking at the IEAIPL40 and IEAIPL41 IRIMs that were introduced in SP 2.2.0, I don't see anything that suggests that the old SYSGEN method for creating and I/O configuration as part of IEANUC0x continued to be supported.
MVSCP was gone in SP 5.1.0, so that was when HCD became mandatory. HCD did not call MVSCP. My recollection is that HCD was introduced in SP 4.1.0, but I haven't found a way to verify that. Lots of MVSCP info here: http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/ibm/370/MVS_ESA/GC28-1817-1_MVS_ESA_Configuration_Program_Guide_and_Reference_Dec89.pdf Some SYSGEN info here: http://bitsavers.trailing-edge.com/pdf/ibm/370/MVS/SR20-4674-1_Guide_to_MVS_SP_System_IPO_SYSGEN_Student_Text_Jul82.pdf Jim Mulder z/OS Diagnosis, Design, Development, Test IBM Corp.
