CICS IA should support FILE control remote access information

RFE 17778 addresses the lack of remote file information in file control GLUEs.
Customer needs this information in order to rationalize her CICS architecture. This implies to get the relationship between programs, files and the CICS regions owning the files (local or FORs). CICS IA is the ideal tool to do so. Unfortunately it lacks this capability. This removes some value to the tool.
Until CICS TS supports the function CICS IA should supply the bypass suggested in the referenced PMR. That is:
SELECT DISTINCT A.APPLID, A.OBJECT, A.RMTSYSID, A.RMTNAME, B.REMOTESYSTEM, .REMOTENAME
FROM CIU_CICS_DATA A, CIU_FILE_DETAIL B
WHERE A.TYPE='FILE' AND A.APPLID = B.APPLID AND A.OBJECT = B.FILE_NAME
AND A.RMTSYSID='----' AND B.ACCESSMETHOD='REMOTE' AND B.REMOTENAME<>' ';
and then:
UPDATE CIU_CICS_DATA
SET RMTSYSID=.... RMTNAME='....'
WHERE ID ='...' AND OBJECT='...'

CICS IA should supply such a program as an optional step of the IA database load JCL, or as a stored procedure.
