Title: (Paraphrase problem in a single statement)NOREPLYU parameter not implemented in ICKDSF for z/VSE.

Detailed Problem Description: (Description of what you want changed - 400 character entry limit)

 

Please implement the NOREPLYU parameter in ICKDSF for VSE.  This will allow us to INIT volumes during our disaster recovery cleanup process without having to respond to each warning message for about 400 volumes.

Ease of Use

Business Justification: (Why? Non-technical business case description. Do not reword Detailed Problem Description from above. What are the benefits to be gained by your company, and the vendor and others?  Quantify: run time, dollars, manpower, etc.   Why should the vendor do this for the customer?)

 

The ICKDSF documentation states that this command has already been implemented in z/VSE.  However, it was in fact, only implemented for z/OS.  Having this parameter will help improve the efficiency of our disaster recovery test.

Solution: (Optional)(Desired/undesired elements Note: Making a suggestion may limit a vendors ability to deliver a solution)

 

     

Impact: (Optional) (How will your company’s business be affected if a solution is not delivered?)
