I know how to produce a report of batch programs by analyzing the SMF type 30

They have also asked for programs run under CICS.

Yes, and everything looks OK.
We ended up removing the offending proclib and then adding it back, and that
fixed the problem.
This might be fine on a test system, but I wouldn't want to do it on a
production system.

So far as I am aware the only complete list is internal to IBM. For
