    Currently we use: SET QACCESS NAME(*) - MSGAUTHUSERS and specify a list of users. This lead to many changes as users come and go. It would be much more efficient to either allow MSGAUTHUSERS to take a RACF Group value or create a MSGAUTHGRP keywor...

    When researching OMEGAMON historical data using the e3270ui, it is often necessary to correlate data from multiple products/views such as z/OS, CICS, DB2, IMS and MQ data. It would be nice if there was a way to synchronize time values across the d...
