Hello Group,
                    We have requirement to remove older version of CICS from
our z/OS system but in SMPE all  FMID related to that particular version of
CICS is in accepted state.

As I have to remove this product from system , I will remove all target and
distribution libraries and  region specific datasets.

but I am not sure how to remove this SMPE related stuff of this CICS from
z/OS system as it is in accepted state.

Any pointer will be helpful.

If the CICS CSIs are unique to that level of CICS, just delete the CSI data sets. If the CICS CSIs are shared among multiple levels of CICS, you can use the ZONEDELETE command, and then REJECT the PTFs for the CICS FMIDs that are unique to the release and remove the FMIDs from the global zone.

Before doing anything at all, though, consider renaming the target libraries using an HLQ with UACC(NONE) to which nobody else has access, and waiting for an IPL. If there's no fallout, you can be pretty sure they're not in use after that...and if they are in use, you can recover quickly if you must, and you'll know who was using them so you can fix that and try again.

HTH,
