    This RFE is partially satisfied by CICS TS 5.3 which is generally available from December 11th 2015.

    CICS Explorer 5.3 provides filtering of resources by expression In the text filter fields in the Resource Group Definitions view, Group List Definitions view, and a small number of older-style views, you can now filter a resource value by using one of the following expressions:
    • == Match the exact value
    • > Greater than
    • >= Greater than or equal to
    • < Less than
    • <= Less than or equal to
    • ! Not

    System dump and transaction dump views were provided in earlier releases.

    This RFE contaains multiple requests for new function. This RFE should be closed and new RFEs raised for each function still not fulfilled. ie one for each rather than multiple requests in one RFE.

    Ellie and Sandy - many thanks for this excellent list - items 5) and 6) should be in our Explorer 5.1 release - they weren't in our 1.1 release.  Many thanks, Joe
