Tab sessions on PCOMM (like HOD)

It would be very helpful if PCOMM could display all active sessions as tabs within a single window, similar to how HOD does. Currently, a separate window is required for each new session launched. As a mainframe operator, I need to log in to multi...

Omegamon need to start to support the use of SMF

Omegamon is dependent on NMI. This prevent other vendors to send important information to Omegamon. A simpel exempel is the sftp server from CO:Z. It can not use the NMI but can generate SMF 119 records. It is the same information as the FTP serve...

Provide job to list the status of all Alerts in a specified C2PCUST dataset

We have potentially 25 LPARs across 5 sysplexes to manage, each with their own set of Alerts (each LPAR has its own C2PCUST library). zSecure Alert provides online (i.e. via ISPF) access to see the status of these alerts. However, signing on to 25...

IP filter rule enhancement to include IKED (IPsec Policy)

Alert 1615 only covers changes to the IP rules defined in the TCPIP Profile statement IPSEC->IPSECR<-ENDIPSEC. As we are supposed to use Policy Agent to configure IPsec rules, this alert is then kind of 'useless' as this default IPSECR state...
