IBM z Omegamon for Storage missing capabilities

Poste Italiane, the official Postal Office in Italy, but also a Bank, an Insurance company, and a Telephone provider, is missing the following capabilities for the mentioned software in the subject:

Information on catalogs is missing: several extents, HURBA/HARBA value, and alerts when the 4GB allocations threshold is reached.

Information on disk models is not available (mod 1, 3, 9, 27, 54).

It is impossible to produce reports on the allocated datasets by Storage Group, which are available only per individual disk.

    This is a multi-faceted request. The team has addressed as follows:

    • Catalogs. It’s not for OMEGAMON for Storage. It’s for Advanced Catalog Management. Feedback shared with their team.

    • Disk Models. This is great idea! We will plan this for future.

    • Dataset Reports by Storage Groups. accepted. This could be done in the RDM or even via TEP and E3270UI.

    marking as "planned for future" for the Disk Models and RDM dataset reports by SG.
