SafeGuarded Copy Capture capability after a DR recover

SafeGuarded Copy Capture in GDPS is allowed only when the disk mirroring is running, MM duplex or GM forming CG depending on the protocol.
We need to be able to continue capturing new SafeGuarded Copy backups also after a DR restart of the application workload, when mirroring is suspended (disk in failover state) or terminated (disk recovered simplex).

    After giving the request a comprehensive review, we have determined that we cannot include it as a candidate in an upcoming release because it won?t be pursued within our planning cycle.
