Include *.streams.json and *.protocols.json to FMID HHBO510

Would be possible to include *.streams.json and *.protocols.json to the FMID HHBO510 ZFS file? 
 

With version 2.1.0, they were included in the ZFS file and the users using ADCD stack (IBM Z Development & Test Environment) were able to use all functions. But, with the new version, we don't have all functions of IBM Z Common Data Provider, because we don't have access to the additional content (DVDs).

 

Thanks for considering this request!

    Hi again - just closing the loop on this Idea. For the time being we will not be including the config files as part of the base FMID, given the reason mentioned above. Thanks for your understanding.

    Hi Javier - thanks for adding this Idea. May I ask why you are unable to access the additional DVD content? We do not ship the configuraton files with the ZFS FMID (HHBO510) becasue there are many different use cases/license considerations for CDP that depend on the owning Product. For that reason, we have the configuration files created, maintainted and shipped as part of their distributed package.
