Workspace Debug for z/OS

Created on Oct 14, 2021

need to create a sequential MVS data set (FB, LRECL 80) with the name userID.EQATIOUT

We are working on an ADFz poc.
One of the new functionalities we want to test is the debugger for an IMS transaction in IDz.
In de installation instructions
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/adfz/developer-for-zos/15.0.0?topic=sfetif-installing-configuring-ims-transaction-isolation-extension-adfz-common-components-server
is mentioned :
'They need to create a sequential MVS data set (FB, LRECL 80) with the name userID.EQATIOUT.'

Problem :
In our company KBC we are not allowed/able to create filenames with our userid as prefix.
So I can not create a file called like userid.EQATIOUT

Request:
Please allow to create a EQATIOUT-file with another prefix than userId.
Thanks
