Stop of utilities during migration except for SYSADM

During Migration it would be nice to turn off all utilities through a DB2 issued online command except for utilities submitted by SYSADM. This would guarantee that utilities would not be able to run during the migration on any datasharing member but it would allow CATMAINT to run. We would be able to perform Hot Migrations with a greater certainty that only migration-related utilities were running and allow CICS transactions to continue for our customers.
Db2 would promote higher availability to customers during migrations.
The idea would be to issue command to turn off utilities except SYSADM during migration and then turn them on again when migration was over allowing the subsystem to be available to customers.

    Thank you for submitting this Db2 for z/OS enhancement request. Db2 for z/OS development has reviewed it and determined it is a low priority now with continuous delivery and fewer migrations. Therefore, unfortunately, we will not be implementing this request
