Recommend first-opportunity to upgrade SAS to a reasonably supported 
version/release and maintenance-level, given SAS 9.1.3 was reduced to very 
limited-support level back in 2013 -- also you are likely missing out on key 
usability improvements, some of which would naturally occur "under the covers" 
with hardware infrastructure changes.

Also, with z/OS V2.3 SMF data, strongly recommend reviewing the MXG.COM support 
site and the CHANGES page for MXG software maintenance-level with new-release 
and technology support.  As a general-rule, consider at least maintaining MXG 
software-currency with each annual-version.
