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.
Welcome to the IBM Ideas Portal (https://www.ibm.com/ideas) - Use this site to find out additional information and details about the IBM Ideas process and statuses.
IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com) - Use this site to view all of your ideas, create new ideas for any IBM product, or search for ideas across all of IBM.

Add fuction: RMM CV command to change the assigned SYSID with FORCE
If a customer is running multiple LPARs that are sharing a CDS, we generally see CATSYSID(*) but if a customer is running multiple LPARS and not sharing the CDS, the SYSID could look like this CATSYSID(SYSTEM1) leaving out IBM1 and preventing the tapes from going to scratch. In other words, If a customer has specified CATSYSID(sysid_list) for example CATSYSID(IBM1) and tape has has a assigned system id that does not match the sysid_list specified in CATSYSID, it will prevent the tapes from going to scratch.
For example CATSYSID(IBM1) and the tape has assigned systemid of SYSTEM1:
Creation: Date = 2021/287 Time = 09:33:18 System ID = IBM1
Assign: Date = 2024/349 Time = 09:20:56 System ID = SYSTEM1
User ID = IBMUSER
If migrating systems, for instance SYSID ibm1 with system1, it would be great to be able to run a RMM SV ASSYSID (SYSTEMID) (IDEA Reference ZOS-I-4435), get volume output and change them to be managed under SYSID(IBM1) with FORCE operand.
This would be helpful when customers are spliting up their CDS, or running multiple LPARs and need to change the SYSID to their new system. With the RMM CV ASSYSID(IBM1) FORCE, it would allow you to change the individual volumes to match the assigned SYSID with the CATSYSID that has been specified.
