Quiesce a target MAS from a specific workload without affecting all workloads it is a target for.

When working with CPSM WLM workloads, a MAS may be a target region for more than one workload. There are times where we need to make changes to a workload (other than simply adding transactions) or we want the active workload to be removed from the CICSplex, and we want to remove a MAS from being a target for workload 'A', but leave it as an active target for workloads 'B', 'C', and 'D'.
Currently, on the EYUSTARTWLMAWAOR.TABULAR view, you can filter based on workload name. You then quiesce a MAS for the workload, and the confirmation screen EYUSTARTWLMAWAOR.QUIESCE specifies a specific workload and workload owner, but the MAS is quiesced for ALL workloads that it is involved in, not just the one you specified.

    Whilst this requirement is valid, based on our current plans and priorities, it is not likely that this could be implemented in the next 12 months, or in the next CICS TS release. Correspondingly this requirement is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and might be reassessed in the future. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:

    Hello.
    Please, could you inform the reasons why this RFE was rejected?
    Thanks.
