Make z/OS Connect policy support more flexible

z/OS Connect policy support currently is very limited. All rules are based on conditions on HTTP headers. The configuration parameter values which overwrite the original ones in the service archive can only be fix values or values containing the value from HTTP headers optionally with an fix addition to it. Both limitations are bringing challenges.

It would be good if you could enhance the policy support to also allow conditions based on path or query parameters and original configuration parameters from the service archive as well as any combination of conditions on HTTP headers, path or query parameters and original configuration parameters from the service archive. Please also enable the policy support to use the values from path or query parameters and original configuration parameters as variables in the value policy support uses to overwrite the original configuration parameters.

    Whilst this requirement is valid, based on our current plans and priorities for IBM z/OS Connect Enterprise Edition, it is not likely that this could be implemented in the next 12 months. Correspondingly this requirement is being declined at this point. The requirement will be kept in the RFE system and we hope to re-open it once we have a clear picture of when it can be delivered. You also have an opportunity to resubmit in twelve months time if you wish it to be reconsidered then.

    Thar would be highly useful for us as we target several IMS systems with one z/OS connect instance.
