CA-ESP has no ongoing support for it. They are supposed to have a replacement product, but it is not yet available.
As to Co:Z support of MVS data sets.. it works great. The problem will be with the client. Most of the clients will support up to #02 of the standard.... which does not really support the use of all the individual parameters and flags about whether they should be used. Instead, a lot of clients will attempt to parse the long directory name and fail miserably in the process. To name a few that have a problem ... - DataPower - putty (not that it really matters.. only mentioned because Filezilla uses putty's sftp code) - Filezilla Personally, the non-support of newer "sort of standard" sftp / ssh drove me a bit crazy. Also, there is a lister that had coded up the SMF exits to post a message to syslog.
