Allow the specification of the isolation mode at the statement level

The programmer should be able to specify the isolation mode (committed read, dirty read, serializable etc.) at the statement level.I don't have a definitive idea on how to specify this in terms of syntax. It could be in a "clean" way like: SELECT ...

Make CP cumulFunction and expressions accept float instead of int

cumulFunction and expressions currently only allow the resource usage to be int which is not useful for all resource types. Whilst a workaround of multiplying the int by a large number to approximate the float is possible there are limitations and...

OPL port for z/OS

We are looking at CPLEX on zOS.Today, only compiling a C++ program can be used to drive CPLEX on the z platform. It would be much easier to be able to inject OPL directly in (concert, part of ) CPLEX for z/OS.

Improve OPL Interfaces by providing dynamically typed API and a “façade” compatible with the .NET framework

Using OPL interface in .Net is cumbersome. Manipulate data elements object and result is far from being trivial.By example, instantiate an int look like that: OplDataSource dataSource = new MyCustomDataSource(oplF); internal class MyCustomDataSour...

Allow actions in 'ERROR' status to be automatically rescheduled

It occasionally happens that an action will encounter an error because an incompatible utility is already executing on a given object. For example, when a separate RUNSTATS utility on an object attempts to execute while a REORG on that same object...

Allow Filtering by Start/End Timestamps on "Autonomic Actions" panel

On panel DAJ$ALRT "Autonomic Actions", it would be very helpful to be able to also allow the user to filter the results by specifying starting and/or ending timestamps. When a user has executed thousands of autonomics actions over time, this would...

Allow additional filtering on "Maintwindow Actions" panel

On panel DAJ$ALR2 "Maintwindow Actions", it would be very helpful to be able to 'dynamically filter' the results by allowing the user to specify values under the columns headings - very similar to the way that the Admin Tool allows you to do so to...

Running process from PLAN submit button

The submit button could have a feature that once submitted it would also allow run TI processes just like any other button in Applications. Current workaround is that I have to have a separate submit button, which triggers a set of actions which n...
