    increase precission of percentage values on PAGe data sets panel

    The "Use%" column in the "PAGe data sets" panel rounds the usage down to a whole number, so 7.95% in use is reported as 7%. Across multiple page data sets this can become a huge difference with actual usage. I propose to show at least 1 decimal di...

    Please modify SDSF RACF calls to class JESSPOOL to use the RACF group(not RACF userid) to validate if a user has access to view/modify output.

    This would be useful because users in a group should be able to view /modify all output created by userids in their group. Currently, SDSF only checks the userid of the output and many RACF groups contain many(5-50) userids so it would be very ben...

    Support ALTLIB settings for % REXX execs

    The current REXX exec support only supports placement in SYSEXEC or SYSPROC. This makes writing/debugging row processing EXECs difficult, as some shops may not allow write access to libraries in the concatenation. The TSO ALTLIB command is the int...

    Enhance SDSF Log Read Options

    To have the ODTitle field as an option to the OFLDS

    Our printing team manages output utilizing the ODTitle among other fields which was available with the Q command in z/OS V2.4 but removed in V.5 in favor of the JDS panel. They utilize the O panel more than the JDS panel to accomplish their workload.

    Support additional special variables like ISFTLINE in secondary panels like JDS when using REXX as %-action character

    Some special variables like ISFTLINE are not supported on (some?) secondary panels (like JDS) when using REXX as %-action-character. Eg. ISFTLINE could be used to get JOBNAME or JOBID in secondary panel like JDS. Alternatively, having the JOBNAME,...
