Variable record hold wait queue depth

today there is a single wait queue threshold depth for all addresses. We have our value set to 100. we have 10 or so databases for which exceeding the limit of 100 is considered normal.

We would like to have a variable limit, that is based on the record id for the address being found and held. this would enable us to be warned at much lower levels for any record ID not known to exceed 100 .

    IBM does not expect to implement this requirement in the foreseeable future.

    A user exit to suppress the messages based on ID, address etc would not be useful to us. Rather we would like to be more sensitive to excessive wait queues. We have increased our threshold value to 100 due to a few databases that frequently hit the threshold. we would like to lower the value so as not to mask any new issues.
