Let me comment a little further. Not all products get updates with an OS update. Instead they may have compatibility PTFs that allow them to make use of new features or adjust fields for the new release (z/OS V2.1) yet still function under your current release.
I would suspect that from your list > How about other product program > number associated with z/OS, as I mentioned in previous email. > > VS Fortran > C/370 Library > REXX Compiler/Lib > Netview for z/OS > Tivoli Mgmt Services > etc.. Would more likely have compatibility fixes. So long as you use FIXCAT and identify and apply the PTFs needed for compatibility, you may not have issues. VS FORTRAN may not have an uplift for z/OS V2.1. But might have some fixes that allow it to run under z/OS V2.1. I would start with compatibility fixes and go from there.
