    Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
    Brand - Servers and Systems Software
    Product family - Enterprise Tooling
    Product - CICS Transaction Gateway

    For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
    Brand - WebSphere
    Product family - Enterprise Tooling
    Product - CICS Transaction Gateway

    In configurations where a specific CICS server is a member of a single DSSGROUP, then the value to be displayed in a new column for CICS connections view is clear. However, if a specific CICS server is a member of more than one DSSGROUP, then a single column doesn't give us a useful solution.
    We will move the requirement to Candidate, and consider it together with RFE (external #) 22035, but any solution is likely to require a different approach to that suggested in the original description of this RFE:

    We need to clarify this requirement - is it that you wish to display the relationship between actual CICS connections, and whether they are a member of a DSS Group? There might not be a 1:1 relationship.
