Although it might cost more than you will save! :-)

We have many 3rd party tools in our maiframe estate like CA , BMC , IBM
etc.
Is there any sysstem utiltiy by which we can come to know which tool has
not
been used over a long period of time ? As part of cost cutting exercise
during MF upgrade we are looking to remove some unused tools so
SMF type 14s can not be relied on for STEPLIB or JOBLIB concatenations.
I believe that only the open for the first dataset in a concatenation is
recorded when programs are being loaded. Also, I think that useful
information about access to datasets in linklist or lpalist would not be
available

I think the only true options is to create RACF dataset profiles for each of
the libraries and then AUDIT those profiles. SMF usage data may not
work because it doesn't show the concatenated datasets, on the first dataset in
the concatenation.
There are packages out there.
Some expensive; some

Those are the same thing. SoftAudit (note spelling) is the former name for
IBM Tivoli License Compliance Manager for z/OS. Former vendor was Isogon.
Okay.
It was cheap when ISOGON sold it.
The reason I called it SOFAUDIT was because that was the name in the PGM= field
(softaudit is 9
FWIW
A situation I have been faced with many times. If the product is
contained in its own library and not on the linklist then a security
product audit should give the required usage. Also the SMF type 30
record will provide information at least about the lead module executed
which should be
