We are running CMOD 8.4 and will upgrading from z/OS 2.1 to z/OS 2.2
Is CMOD 8.4 compatible with z/OS 2.2?

I brought up CMOD 8.4 on my z/OS V2.2 system and it appears to run fine but I didn't put any work through it.

So I haven't tested it but no reason it shouldn't work.

I have a z/OS 2.2 thread that you'll want to check.

We are running CMOD 8.4 and will upgrading from DB2 Version 11 Compatibility Mode  to DB2 Version 11 New Function Mode.
Is CMOD 8.4 compatible with this mode?
Please advise.

jhe2 - The combination of DB2 V11 NFM and CMOD V8.4.0 has not been tested.

I can't think of any reason why it won't work.

But as Justin says - especially because this is uncharted waters - you really should test this before going into production.

I keep the second list up to date.  There have been no new entries on that list since November of last year because I haven't caught any DB2 issues affecting CMOD since then.

thanks for your informations. We have tested this combination (DB2 V11 NFM and CMOD 8.4.0) and are going into productions last weekend
without problems so far.
