Thanks, KB, for the reference. We also mentioned a SHARE blog post from Marna Walle on June 2018, where she gives a link to an IBM site that provides a list of all New Function APARs. The list is also available in csv format. So, I think it would be fairly simply to create control statements from the spreadsheet. This has been available for almost five years now, so everyone should have the link. (See our Tuning Letter 2016 No. 3, page 94.) Just remember that it's a very long list, which is why we summarize them every quarter.
Marna's blog post - https://www.share.org/blog/new-function-apars-are-great-to-follow IBM site for New Function APARs - https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/665131 Thanks to Marna and the developers for providing this site in response to a SHARE requirement that we requested.

Marna Walle's sesssions about v2r4 in SHARE, CMG, GSE, TechDocs as applicable. 2. NewEra - http://www.newera-info.com/eBooks.html The form for accessing the PDF is broken, but I'm sure you can contact them & find out. 3. v2r4 coverage in Cheryl Watson's newsletter(s) PS: TechDocs is basically beyond useless now. The search function might as well be a picture of a stone. We're losing access to so much great content because of someone's ego. - KB ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Sunday, February 28, 2021 12:46 PM, Roger Lowe <[email protected]> wrote: > In reviewing the four "IBM z/OS Version 2 Release 4 2020 new functions and > enhancements" Announcement Letters, is there an easy way of identifying APARs > that offer "New Function" without having to read through each Announcement > Letter and "pick the eyes out of it"? > . > Similar to doing a Target Zone bitmap to place an order in Shopz, could a > Target Zone bitmap be supplied and then all of the applicable "New Function" > APARs be ordered? > . > Just a thought ...... > > Roger > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > ------------------------------------------------ > > For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send > email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
