    Thank you for submitting the enhancement request. As mentioned in the IDz 15.0 Announcement:
    https://www-01.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/2/897/ENUS220-422/index.html&lang=en&request_locale=en
    The IBM Debug Tool Load Module Analyzer plug-in is deprecated and will be removed in the next release. IBM File Manager for z/OS (also part of IBM Application Delivery Foundation for z/OS) offers a load module utility that has more capabilities.
    Therefore this RFE is rejected as no longer strategic.

    There are no exclusion parameters in LMA - thus I have opened this RFE and request selection options.

    LMA runs fine with the warning messages etc. but we also need Fileaid because LMA is incomplete. Since Fileaid also has problems with this dataset, we tried with AMBLiST - but it too failed. We want to process all the modules in the library the $$$SPACE module can be excluded. LMA is incomplete.

    We need a way to specify exclusions - We need to be able to select based on specifics specified in the SELECT parameter as
    outlined in the PMR (Case) TS004032401 and explained in Use Case above.

    private In the use case, you refer to FileAid also having issues with this dataset. Please clarify, do you mean IBM File Manager or CW FileAid? Do you know if IBM File Manager also experiences the same problems?
