I absolutely agree. And for the likes of the larger ISVs, I would guess all of
their product source code is in escrow and kept up to date. Maybe not so much
for the mom and pop software companies, but the big ones, yes.

Charles,
First, thank you for the debate. I enjoy and appreciate your insight. Very
well stated!
Regarding the case I mentioned, it was not a licensee/user, but a competitor.
Long story, but not one I feel comfortable going into any further detail about.
Regards,
Mitch

In mainframe parlance, AWS could stand for Automated Workload Scheduler, such
as TWS from IBM/Tivoli.

Michael,
For a quick fix, do you have any of the more popular JCL management tools? If
so, there is a way to always ensure the dataset is allocated and available
before the initial access from your production processing hits it for the first
time.

As usual, it depends on how far forward
A friend of mine made a comment to me maybe 30 years ago about something
similar to this subject. He said the darkest day in the history of computer
operations was the day when applications programming realized an application
would run in production with our without documentation.

I am familiar with this product, and while it has some good features, it is not
complete for an end to end documentation and cross reference solution.

Folks,
I will talk with someone at a vendor site that may be able to do something
close to this. May I ask for other input from anyone else that sees value in
this?
