Good idea, but in our case it would need to be a very long history if it only had hyperswap information. Maybe more useful to us as part of an events history log, that holds information like script start and end times, replication interruptions, etc, as well as hyperswaps. It would save time trawling through old Netview logs looking for that type of information.
I think GDPS lacks some type of Audit Log in general. This is one good example, but scripts execution in general could also be looked at for storing historical important events.
I use SDF exit to log scripts execution so we can track the Hyperswap execution among others, but I submitted idea ZGDPS-I-245 to make it something officially supported.
low priority.
Good idea.
It's very good idea, but not the most important currently.
Low priority
Worldpay also likes the idea of having some HS history within GDPS. This would be the 'source of truth' in addition to records in Incident Management.
This will be handy for checking when hyperswap had happened - Low priority.
Would be useful for tracking and comparison purposes without having to maintain a separate document.
We'd also like to see the phases of HS in any solution implemented along with UIT - Priority Medium
LBG: This is an excellent idea and something we would like in the next two years.
It may also keep information about Freezes (both planned and unplanned)
