    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.

    Hello,
    Same need, and not using CPSM because we have a dozen LPAR's with only one CICS on each. Since it's one CMAS per LPAR, that means having twice our actual number of regions, just to have CPSM. Not worth it...
    Best regards

    For those interested in this RFE, it would be very helpful if you could add a comment regarding why using CICSPlex SM isn't an option you would consider in your environment. Is there anything CICSPlex SM could do better that would help you reconsider?
