Issue/Introduction

We are currently at Datacom DB version 15.1, VSAM/T version 14 and CICS TS 5.3

SO00347 delivers support for CTS 5.4 and enhanced DVREQPR to be THREADSAFE. 

The solution SO00347 states that it is for CICS 5.4.

Is it okay to APPLY this solution to our environment and will it be permissible to execute DFHCSDUP now considering we are still at CICS 5.3?
