Good afternoon, Management is wondering if a new CMOD Zos release is expected in 2025. (Just for planning purposes) We are currently on V10.5
Hi Lori -
As of this date, nothing has been announced.
I get occasionally asked when is the next release is coming out.
I can truthfully say I have no idea. The Chief Architect does not confide in me. :-)
However, I can say that in the past support continues for at least 2 years for the n-1 level of CMOD after the new "n" level is announced.
I anticipate even if a new release is announced today you'll have all of 2026 to implement it.
I also know that new function is being promulgated via fixpacks, so it pays to stay fairly current.
A good ref:
