the answer is "it depends". Some of them are updated, have a look at
Comm Server books, Connectivity Handbook (it is -11, which means 12

We simply issue the appropriate SET TIMEZONE or SET CLOCK command on the
appropriate day on the machines, and have not had problems for years. These
commands do not change the TOD clock, and none of our software is sensitive

I agree with Mark. Since the introduction of the SET TIMEZONE command,
this CBT tool seems less useful. For quite a few years now, there have
been no operating systems level components that are affected by time
change, assuming you are running with GMT=GMT, and not GMT=LOCAL.

Is anyone looking at replacing TSM altogether?
TSM 5.5.X was great but the upgrade to 6.x is not only painful but is wrought
with bugs.
I know there are a few folks on this list that use FDR/UPSTREAM on zOS to

I get this all the time. The dataset has a small allocation that
allows multiple volumes.
They start their job, fill up all the extents on a volume, extend to
another volume, fill it up, and keep extenting until they have
allocations on all volumes. Then they try to extend to another volume

DFSMShsm supports VSAM KSDS extended addressability (EA) capability that
uses any of the following for its CDSs: record level sharing (RLS) access mode,
CDSQ serialization, or CDSR serialization.
And you can use Extended Addressability.
