They can't be any worse than mine :)

z/OS 1.13, CICS 5.1

The developer wrote a specific program to test the new version, and it's only 
been trialled in one CICS region.
I believe another program designed to test batch didn't exhibit such wayward 
results.
I would have liked them to test more programs but it's not my dog.

I don't know to be honest. Other users' experience possibly.

With specific transactions or all transactions? With all or some CICS regions?

NORENT? Hmmm, I think it is something how your programs are linked or combined 
with CICS and CICS programs.

Based on what is IBM suggesting NORENT?
