IMS Asynchronous Lock Duplexing

Like DB2 "asynchronous CF duplexing", do you have any plan to implement similar functionality on IMS for IMS locking and VSAM RLS locking.

Synchronized duplexing is too expensive in terms of CPU consumption.

    This item is on our roadmap of things to get done but we are rejecting it for now because the rule we have for Ideas is that we have to deliver the Idea within 18-24 months of the submission. We will not be able to deliver this Idea within 18-24 months. But you don’t have to re-submit this idea as it is on our roadmap of things to get done.
