Support to JCECCARACFKS certificates on EQAPROF

In case TS012216270 we are told that the EQAPROF does not support RACF certificates with the key in PKDS (JCECCARACFKS) only JCERACFKS. I think it would be a good idea to add that support since we have customers who use a single SITE type certific...

Currently, z/OS Debugger for IMS permits filtering IMS transactions based on the 32 first bytes of the IMS transaction header (starting from the very first byte). This is very small for us and really not usable as our IMS transactions have a big h...

Provide own userid per default on creating a new CICS debugger profile

Hello IBM, when you create a new CICS Debugger Profile in IDz / Remote Debugger, the userid field as one of multiple possible filters should be prefilled with the current connected userid per default. That's pretty important to prevent users fro...
