Need a way to inhibit and resume CARMA connection

We have Endevor maintenance task that need all users to leave Endevor, such that we can perform the batch job such as reorg, backup, etc. In ISPF we can do this by inhibit the Endevor panel, or even force users to logoff from TSO.

With introdcing the CARMA interface, we need to have a way to control users logon to CARMA. We know shutdown RSED can do this but we don't want to impact to others users in RDz who is not using Endeovr.

Idea priority High

    We have provided an alternative solution to customer. We feel this is a valid requirement but delivery within the RFE 2 year window is not likely. Please resubmit in 12-18 months for reconsideration if still valid.

    This RFE is consistent with our strategy and product roadmap and IBM is continuing to evaluate.
