This is the public portal for all IBM Z Hardware and Operating System related offerings. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

1) for DB2 LOGCOPY it is recommended to allocate a stripe format dataset
The SPOF health checker should check that all of the volumes for DSN1 are on different CUs than for DSN2
Example : Disk Controller : CU1 with Volser V1, V2 and CU2 with Volser V3, V4
CU1: V1, V2
CU2: V3, V4
LOGCOPY1.DS36 : Volser V1, V2, V3, V4
LOGCOPY2.DS36 : Volser V3, V4, V1, V2
Currently only the first volumes are checked, result: LOGCOPY1 and LOGCOPY2 are on different CUs
The health checker should check all volumes of the multivolume dataset: result: LOGCOPY1 and LOGCOPY2 are on the same CU
2) with a wildcard : '=' the same suffix of DSN1, DSN2 should be checked
The list is clearer and all datasets are checked
Example: LOGCOPY1.DS01 to DS036 checked with LOGCOPY2.DS01 to DS36
Instead of writing
DSN1(LOGCOPY1.DS01)
DSN2(LOGCOPY2.DS01)
…..
DSN1(LOGCOPY1.DS36)
DSN2(LOGCOPY2.DS36)
replace with
DSN1(LOGCOPY1.=)
DSN2(LOGCOPY2.=)
