    Please certify the product IBM Data Replication IMS for z/OS Remote Source to run on zCX and/or Red Hat Openshift

    We’ve achieved excellent results with the Db2 for Remote Source product, as it has significantly reduced CPU usage on the mainframe—an area where traditional data replication has historically been one of the top resource consumers. With the introd...

    Assume IAM Role instead of using IAM Access Key and Secret (Data Gate for watsonx)

    The client, Itaú, follows a strict security policy based on the principle of least privilege, which requires all authentication and authorization operations to be carried out through IAM Roles, rather than using IAM Access Key and Secret pairs, wh...

    Composite License Packaging for Simplified Allocation

    Introduce a capability in IBM LSF License Scheduler to define a single package name that represents multiple license features. When this package is allocated, all underlying licenses are automatically allocated together. This would be similar to h...

    Having more parameters in API calls

    It would be beneficial to be able to pass more parameters during an API call (server/execute, for example). Currently, we can use an overrides file to modify a DBalias or the path to an XF file, for instance, in the case of a data extraction reque...

    License Scheduler - Minimum Preemption Time

    It's been observed when the license scheduler preempts a job to free up license resources, the job can occasionally be resumed within 1-2 seconds if license features are freed up during that time. This leads to behavior where processes do not prop...

    Lifecycle management of logs in LSF license scheduler

    LSF License Scheduler generates blcollect.log and bid.log, and these logs increase over time. Since the license scheduler does not provide a log management feature, when the logs become too large, the administrator must move the files. Of course, ...
