Would like to see a function in ISMF that would display the SETSYS options currently in use

Currently if i do a F DFSMSHSM,Q SETSYS - it is a rather long listing.   I might missing a setting like MIGRATION HOLD
It would be great if in ISMF, the current parms as they are set could be displayed in an ISPF Table (not to update, just to view)
This should include a filter.  Such as display all parms related to Migration or CDS, etc...

This way i will be less likely to mis a parm setting.

If this could also include what is set at HSM or SMS Start up and what is manually changed during the life of the task.  That would also be helpful.

HSM would be the first component I would like to see this for.  But all functions, RMM, DFS, etc.. would be helpful

    Hi Lizette,

    Would an option to produce a formatted listing of the current setsys parms as they are set work?
