YES

NETMAN has been around as a standalone mainframe network/system automation
product since at least the 90s on MVS/ESA, and later moved into workload
manager under z/OS but it is still known and referred to as NETMAN. CA also
has a product called NETMAN for mainframe systems, I suppose because IBM
never trademarked it.

BOTH organizations are quite litigious, not to mention the confusion among
a significant segment of the population as to which platform is in context.

Plus, I never liked the name then. Sounds like pigman, or spiderman, or a
guy who supplies fishing nets.
