This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

This RFE is a spin off from PMR 22839.
Problems with current design:
- adress space selection not granular enough: the example here is an MQ broker with multiple jobs with the same jobname and we only want to monitor some of them (one?) based on stepname and/or pgmname.
- not able to collect for nearly enough address spaces: they have hundreds of WAS regions that they want to monitor. We can't possibly collect for that many (48 address spaces used to cause TEMS quiesce!), nor would we want to because of ...
- unnecessary overhead: collecting thousands of rows for each address space has to be expensive. That's a waste if we don't need it.
proposed solution (Enhancement Request):
We don't want to collect thousands of rows of data for any address space until we know that it is behaving badly. Collect minimal amount of data (like output of LSQA minor command) for a much bigger list of address spaces (all?) then the user can use a query with ASID (from a link) to get the complete details if/when needed.
Workaround:
System Automation will be used to dynamically build a list of ASIDs to monitor on each system from a master list of jobname/stepname. Then, using an M1 session on each system, SA will issue PEEK <ASID> / LSQA for each address space and collect the "Available For User Pvt". If that is below the threshold, an alert will be raised. The process repeats every 10 or 15 minutes.

From our internal review we see merit in this RFE but at this time we will have to reject this due to the timeframe criteria set for RFEs. If we can not deliver the RFE with in 3 years we will have to reject it. That being said we will save this request in an internal database and continue looking at opportunities within the product development cycle where we may be able to address. Thank you for the RFE.
Will work to include this in a future release as a candidate for a future release
