    We have assessed this requirement. We have no current plans for this to be implemented and so 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.

    The health checks were added to warn customers where misconfiguration of CICS regions
    could lead to a security exposure on their systems.
    Therefore it would break this policy to have a configuration option in CICS to change the check.

    It is possible, for all health checks, for an authorised IBM Health Checker for z/OS operator
    to issue commands to change the interval in which the checks are run.
    It is also possible to deactivate or delete checks.
    See https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSLTBW_2.1.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r1.e0zl100/comex.htm
    for further details of checks.
