Fetching Vendor data from Directory

Vendor data that gets stored in Directory needs to be read by vendor batch utilities (PFX utilities). We need mechanism in DFS3CATQ i.e. if requested it should return the vendor data may be ignore the other meta data both from active as well staging directory when needed.

    Hi Anshul,

    Per our discussion, I'm closing this RFE.
    This RFE is a duplicate of another RFE that is currently being developed in APAR PH39492.
    Please keep an eye out for thsi APAR.
    Thanks.

    Sincerely,
    Deepak Kohli (deepakk@us.ibm.com)

    Hi Anshul,

    You had submitted this RFE:
    http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewRfe&CR_ID=151561

    After reading this RFE, it appears that what you are asking for is an option on DFS3CATQ to return ONLY the vendor data?
    Is that true? If not please explain.
    Thanks.

    With warm regards,
    Deepak Kohli
