Hello, I am the person who made the original question. Just to be clear, I'm running an authorised version of z/OS (3.1) in an authorised hardware ruled by license with IBM. From the operating system perspective, our z/OS runs on a 1090 machine.
So, I believed it was the appropriate forum, because I was not asking specifics like how to define a new disk or ADCD parameters. Anyway, it is good to know there is also a zPDT or ADCD discussion list.

As far as I am aware, there will be a z/OS 3.2 later this year and then that is it. - the ADCD for zPDT and ZD&T are different - the ADCD for ZD&T was discontinued earlier this year and is now known, as far as I can tell as z/OS Dev and Test stock image for on demand environments but is also used in products such as Test Accelerator for z - it looks like that ZD&T Personal Edition is also gong the same way as zPDT early next year but licensing there is different so people can probably continue to use, just not get any new versions.
