With obsolete, I mean those modules which are no longer being used or called by any other COBOL module or any process in application. These are old modules sitting along with many other COBOL modules in same source libraries and developers, who used to maintain these, had long left the organisation and no one else could comment if these are obsolete or not. So, that's the reason, I am trying to find out any way or tool to determine the obsolete modules.

What do you mean by obsolete? It's possible that IBM Application Discovery and Delivery Intelligence or Debug Tool Load Module Analyze can help.

How can I figure out obsolete COBOL batch programs in a mainframe application? Is there any tool that I can leverage here? If there is no tool, what should be my approach to identify obsolete COBOL batch programs?
