It may be “compatible” (as in: “may work”), but it is not supported,  
only Adabas 8.2 is officially available and supported for z/OS 1.13

The product availability search in empower will indicate what versions are available & supported  
on what platform, and there’s an extra [IBM availability](http://www.softwareag.com/Corporate/products/bis/platforms/ibm_availability.asp) document.
