Yes, z/OS V1.13 is planned to be the last release to support
*BPX.DEFAULT.USER*.  IBM recommends that we either use the BPX.UNIQUE.USER
support that was introduced in z/OS V1.11,
 or assign unique UIDs to users who need them and assign GIDs for their
groups.

I found below link to enable BPX.UNIQUE.USER support

But as I mentioned, we  share the RACF database with downlevel systems, So
as per this link  we  can enable automatic assignment of unique IDs on our
current systems and enable default OMVS segment processing on our downlevel
systems. In this situation, the two methods can coexist.
