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 problem occurred because of a problem that we had with our loadtpf version that had the "load to 31 bit COW area" bit set. But, it would have been much easier to find and fix the problem if we could have seen what was in CRPA. We ended up writing a quick program to display the area and saw that there was a problem in that area.
It could/would be useful to know which programs are sitting in the areas and how big they are - especially in the 31 bit areas. Program name, size, program type, and sweeper candidate (possibly) would all be useful.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
