GDPS Sysplex Resource Management provide confirmation

When using GDPS Metro Sysplex Resource Management function to switch Sysplex policy, please display the policy GDPS is going to activate and switch on panel VPCPASSU.
So users can visualize and confirm which policy GDPS is about to activate and confidently use GDPS to operate systems.
Thank you.

    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.

    I agree, being able to visually verify what is being activated is a good idea.

    Seems like a quite reasonable request in order to ensure that the intended policy is about to be activated. Will definitively reduce risk when implementing changes.
