There's something from IBM who can discover transaction affinities.

The product is "CICS Interdepency Analyzer" even though it seems you can
use the load scanner "CAULMS" in order to scan load libraries and find out
verbs that can impact CICSPlex.

Of course it's a CICS tool so could catch only something like "EXEC CICS
GETMAIN SHARED" etc.

I think the redbook sg246458 about the product above is a good point to
start from.

Of course applications could have out-of-CICS behaviour that can impact too.

Best regards.
