This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

When a client is using the Deployment Wizard and they attempt to name a page one of the shipped names, either prevent them from using the name or present a warning that this is the name of a shipped file and do not recommend using this name for a page.
When they do this, it makes support more difficult because we don't know they did it and they don't tell us and we assume they didn't and it takes a lot of time to figure out they did something they shouldn't have. The warning message would be helpful, but preventing them from naming would be even better.
