Title: Add additional information to
message L281I
(Short description of what you want the
product changed to - include keywords like function, short product name)
Statement of
the Problem (Detailed
description of what you want changed, 400 character limit):
Currently, L281I returns:
SUBLIBRARY lib.sublib CANNOT BE DELETED OR RENAMED BECAUSE IT IS NOT UNIQUELY
ASSIGNED
We need an indication of where else the lib.sublib
is LIBDEF'd, causing the problem. Before running the job, we go through and
drop all known chains for the lib.sublib we are going to delete or rename. As a
VM/VSE shop we also drop other guest machines, if necessary.
Benefit: (Non-technical description,
i.e a business case -do not reword technical statement above. In terms of time, dollars, run time,
manpower, etc., how will request benefit your company, the vendor and others to
justify the needed change? Quantify if possible. Why is it important for vendor
to want to do this for the customer? Give best estimate of customers who
will benefit – 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%. 400 character limit)
A time consuming manual search has to be done
in order to track down the machine and partition that has the lib.sublib in it's
active search chain. Very often, nothing shows up (via LIBLIST) in any search
chains, but the message indicates otherwise. It would be very helpful for the
message to indicate where else LIBR 'thinks' the lib.sublib is assigned. We
could then resolve the problem faster.
Date Needed: (ASAP, one year from now, etc)
ASAP
Impact: (How will your company’s
business be affected if a solution is not
delivered)
This is sometimes a task (renaming a sublib)
reserved for when the system is down for an upgrade of software, hence the
rename. When this problem occurs, it delays bringing the system back up until
the problem is resolved. As a service organization, this costs money as
customers drop off the line waiting to place orders.
Solution: (optional:
desirable and/or undesirable - Note:
suggestion may limit vendor’s ability to deliver a solution)
Indicate where else the lib.sublib is assigned.
Classification: (Choices - Suggestion-Nice Idea, Long Range-Future, Tactical-ASAP,
or Acceptability-I won’t buy the
product, or will drop the product, if solution not provided)
