IDz - Remote z/OS File Search - Search Concatenated Data Sets

Remote z/OS File Search enhancement:
When multiple Data Set Names are specified in the Remote z/OS File Search dialogue, please allow for the ability to request that the search treat the datasets as a concatenation of datasets instead of searching each dataset individually. I am requesting that a new check box be added to the Remote z/OS File Search dialogue to allow the user to select that the “Data set names” be searched as a concatenation of data sets. This would result in a single ISRSUPC search being initiated with all of the datasets being concatenated under the ISRSUPC NEWDD DDNAME. The concatenation order would match the order of the datasets listed in the “Data set names” text box.

    Thank you for taking the time to submit an enhancement for IBM Developer for z/OS. Customer input is invaluable to our products and many new functions and enhancements result from feedback. All input is very important to us to improve and server our customers.

    We realize this Request for Enhancement has been in our backlog for quite some time and it is currently still not in our roadmap for the next two years. Instead of keeping it indefinitely in our backlog we have decided to respond with a decline.

    If you would like to discuss this decision in more detail please reach our to Joy Spohn (joys@us.ibm.com). Or, you can resubmit in 12-18 months for reconsideration. Thank you again for your suggestion.

    This RFE has been under review for a while and is accepted. We do not have an estimated delivery date at this time.

    Hi IBM,
    this one is pretty important for our shop. When could we estimate this feature to be implemented?
    Thx Michael
