Add details to the message DFS2082 RESPONSE MODE TRANSACTION TERMINATED WITHOUT REPLY

The IMS message ?DFS2082 RESPONSE MODE TRANSACTION TERMINATED WITHOUT REPLY? is sent when a transaction defined a 'response mode' has not generated a reply. So, to avoid keeping the terminal waiting for an answer the IMS sends this message when there's no response to the transaction. To diagnose this situation the customer has to search for the actual program and transaction that experienced this situation to notify about it to the programmer, as normally this is caused by a coding problem in the program. The customer would like that the names of the transaction and the program are also displayed in the message text to avoid the task of searching to the IMS log to try to troubleshoout this situation.

    Thank you for your interest in keeping IMS a vital and successful product. Software development has continuously evolved during IMS's lifetime, and so has IMS itself. We have kept pace with, adopted, and implemented many industry standard best practices within our organization, including Continuous Delivery, Design Thinking, and Agile.

    When choosing new features to add from the list of requirements in our backlog, we assess which will bring the most value to as many clients as possible and prioritize those.

    At this time, after reviewing this request for enhancement and assessing its potential value, we have decided to reject it. The reason we are rejecting RFE ID 32781 is because of the priority and low customer interest that we were not able to get to it at this time.

    If there is any further question, feel free to contact us at any time.

    Thank you.
    Haley Fung - hfung@us.ibm.com
