Thanks for the heads up Jerry. We've been 2.2 since spring, and haven't had any of these issues, but was gearing up to start using GDGE. I'll leave it enabled, but we won't be pushing its use until OA50703 is closed. As for the JES2 APAR, we don't use PRYORATE, and we are z22 everywhere now, except our PROD spool. We have had problems getting to z22 mode due to the requirement for SPOOLDEF CYL_MANAGED=ALLOWED and insufficient support for it in CA-Roscoe since it reads spool directly. I think they have it fixed now. As a side-note, we used the $MSPL (Merge spool) command to merge some of our older smaller spool volumes onto some mod-54's, and Roscoe can't read that data either. Sadly, CYL_MANAGED=ALLOWED came along in z/OS 1.11, and $MSPL came along in 1.12 or 1.13 and neither were working properly within CA-Roscoe even now...
