This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Z Software products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.
Welcome to the IBM Ideas Portal (https://www.ibm.com/ideas) - Use this site to find out additional information and details about the IBM Ideas process and statuses.

ideasibm@us.ibm.com - Use this email to suggest enhancements to the Ideas process or request help from IBM for submitting your Ideas.
Thank you for taking the time to suggest an enhancement to our product. Many of our product enhancements result from feedback from our customers, so your input is always very important to us. However, a functionality to enable such request is already present in our product. Our IBM Explorer for z/OS: Host Configuration Guide states that the "MAX_THREADS option sets the maximum number of users that can be using one JES Job Monitor at a time. The default is 200." So, increasing this number might require you to increase the size of the JES Job Monitor address space. This can be done in the configuration file 'FEJJCNFG' located in FEK.#CUST.PARMLIB, unless it was specified in a different location.
Another recommendation would be to specify REGION=0M in the started task PROC this would mean to use the max available (2G).
Again, thank you for your suggestion and continued support.
