Lionel, you asked ALMOST the same question as I wanted to - when I read the Ad.
The question I would ask is "was there a change in 2.3 that killed these tools. And, if so, what was it?"

(TRA)" <lionel.d...@va.gov> To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Date: 21/09/2017 13:56 Subject: Dynamic Steplib and z/OS 2.3? Sent by: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> Tone software in an advertisement from Enterprise Systems Media just claimed that the CBT STEPLIB command and CA's TSOPLUS STEPLIB will not work with z/OS 2.3 in a move to sell their DYNA-STEP. I have no problems with DYNA-STEP having used it in a prior life but I fail to see how either of the other two solutions will fail with z/OS 2.3 as I don't recall anything in the announcement or presentations that would imply changes to the z/OS internals that would affect them. Can anyone confirm this claim about the CBT STEPLIB command or CA's TSOPLUS? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lionel B.
