Hi
I'm asking for the last state to get notification at file updates.
My colleagues planning an application, would run on all possible
platforms, and would get notification, if a file has

In z/OS it would be enough to deal with a DSN qualifier
If you have a scheduling system, this can probably do it, CA-7 and

One exception to that would be if you intend to use system backup and system
