Hi Markus, We got a product called TICTOC for Y2K testing. It worked great for that and we kept it for time period sensitive applications. The current name is Application Time Facility, distributed by IBM. They do keep it current.
We don't IPL for date testing anymore. We use it with batch, TSO, Com-plete, ADABAS mostly. It also works with CICS, DB2, and WebSphere. Time shifted work can be run in the same lpar as normal work or development. You would use a test instance of the online software and database and they get the date applied there.
