CPSM cmd to Activate/Quiesce a target Region only in a specific WLMSPEC.

I use following cmd to Activate or Quiesce some target Regions in a specific "wlmspecx" WLMSPEC:
EXEC CPSM PERFORM OBJECT("WLMAWAOR")
PARM("WORKLOAD(wlmspecx).")
CRITERIA("AOR=cicsaorx")
ACTION("ACTIVATE/QUIESCE") .....
Some of this target Regions are defined in others WLMSPEC, but i want Activate or Quiesce this target Regions only in this WLMSPEC, not in the others.
Despite the fact in the cmd i specify:
PARM("WORKLOAD(wlmspecx).")
the target Region "cicsaorx" goes Active or Quiesced in all WLMSPEC, not only in "wlmspecx".

    This is a valid requirement and is a candidate for a future release.

    As a workaround, it is valid to move a target region between different workloads by changing their association with the system groups the workloads are using to modify the target scope for the workload requests. A target region can be the target for 1 or more workloads. If you have large numbers of regions you wish to move around like this, it might be more helpful to add them into groups and use group to group links to change the target scopes.

    For example:
    Add AOR1 to DAYGRP (CSYSGRP)
    Add AOR2 to NIGHTGRP (CSYSGRP)
    Add AOR3 to BOTHGRP (CSYSGRP)

    Create WLMDAY (WLMSPEC) with target scope of DAYGRP
    Create WLMNIGHT (WLMSPEC) with target scope of NIGHTGRP

    Create a group to group link (CSGLCGCG) so DAYGRP contains the BOTHGRP group. Once the workload is established you should see the targets for the WLMDAY workload are AOR3 and AOR1. Now you can create a group to group link so NIGHTGRP also contains BOTHGRP. Now both workloads are using AOR3. Finally to complete the transition, delete the group to group link between DAYGRP and BOTHGRP. Now only the WLMNIGHT workload will route work to the AOR3 system.
