PROCLIM cputime with a higher degree of accuracy

In case of non-FP transaction, PROCLIM cputime parameter must be specified in seconds. But, if cpu resources are very limited, clients wants to specify it more accurate like hundreds of seconds.

    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 133324 is because this enhancement has been delivered via IMS service process:

    - IMS 15 APAR[PTF]: PH00581[UI58235] - http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?crawler=1&uid=swg1PH00581

    This APAR includes a change to DFSIU10 to treat PLCTTIME as a runtime attribute, so that the UPDATE TRAN SET(PLCTTIME()) command is allowed even if DRD is not enabled.

    Please see the documentation for additional information.

    If you have any further question, please let us know.

    Thank you for your continued support with IMS.
