    z/OSMF NCA TCPIP profile - allow unresolved symbols in promoted configuration file

    A lot of work has gone into adding the ability to maintain the TCPIP Profile in the Network Configuration Assistant The TCPIP command xportprof makes it easy to import the existing configurations into the NCA . It brings in the values for used sym...

    Add option in SDSF z/OSMF Plugin settings to set global default TSO logon procedure

    Having an option in the SDSF z/OSMF Plugin settings to set a global default TSO logon procedure for all z/OSMF users would be beneficial, as this will allow users to start using the SDSF z/OSMF Plugin right away with minimal user intervention.

    z/OSMF export/import of configuration definitions

    We have more than one z/OSMF running in more then one sysplex. We would like to export and import some of the configured functions from one z/OSMF to the other. For example - z/OS Operator Consoles- Links- FTP Servers- etc Same as for Network Conf...

    z/OSMF SCA: Add more options to "fixing"

    The generation of RACF commands to "fix" the security settings is a great new feature. However, we like to suggest some improvements: - do not generate a new discrete profile but check for the best-matching profile instead (maybe let the user deci...

    Allow the specification of multiple BPXPRM parmlib member suffixes in the "SETOMVS SYNTAXCHECK=" MVS command

    We have our OMVS defnitions split up in several BPXPRMxx parmlib members. It would be very handy if I could check the whole configuration for syntax errors with a single command e.g. "SETOMVS SYNTAXCHECK=(A1,B2,C3)", the same way I can specify the...

    Enhance D OMVS command to show all active PARMLIB members used

    At IPL time a d omvs command will display all the BPXPRMxx members used as expected. But if a t omvs=xx is issued later then the d omvs command will only report on that one BPXPRMxx and *not* the prior members which is misleading and incorrect as ...

    zFS - Update catalog bits also when filesystem is mounted RO

    The zFS attributes from the CATALOG will be updated only when the filesystem is mounted RDWR. Meaning when a cluster is allocated with 'DEFINE CLUSTER LINEAIR' (not with ZFS keyword). And afterwards always mounted RO, the catalog is never updated....

    DFSMSrmm ONLYIF with BEGIN and END

    Currently ONLYIF support in EDGRMMxx and DEFTABLE effects the next command/parameter, for every paramter/command you would require an ONLYIF statement. By providing support that includes a block of commands/statement, will reduce the size and comp...
