zPDT shows a CPU model number of 1090.  Perhaps you could use that?

Subject: Machine-readable flag for "development-only z/OS'

[External Email. Exercise caution when clicking links or opening attachments.]

I know IBM sells z/OS licenses that are for development only, such as the Z 
Development and Test Environment.

Is there a machine-readable flag that indicates that a z/OS instance is 
development only? Would it be possible to write an app that, just as an 
example, refused to run in such an environment?
