Issue/Introduction

In order to receive the best support for your CA InterTest products, and to be sure that you are running versions that are still supported, you might need to know when a product or version was available (GA date), and the date that it was no longer supported (EOS date).

This information is readily available within CA InterTest and CA SymDump pages on CA Support Online, for z/OS- and z/VSE- products.
