IBM Power Ideas Portal


This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).


Shape the future of IBM!

We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:

Search existing ideas

Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,

Post your ideas
  1. Post an idea.

  2. Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.

  3. Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

Allow %ERROR to evaluate a TEST operation directly

Currently, validating a date, time, or timestamp value requires a TEST operation followed by a separate check of %ERROR: test(DE) *ISO rawDate;if %error; // The value is invalidendif; I would like %ERROR to support evaluating a TEST operation dire...

BRMS - need method to bulk-expire and or bulk-remove

While normal BRMS maintenance will expire any number of tapes, there are situations where clients have migrated to new systems and or left a networked BRMS environment without properly addressing the volumes owned by other systems Currently we can...

CISS-Based 3D-Printed Selective Ion Sensors

PROBLEM: Printing a sensor scaffold lets designers place chiral sensing pores near the electrode, but selectivity depends on chiral groups surviving printing and functionalisation in an oriented form. A pore network that traps ions in deep channel...

CISS-Selective Gradient-Multilayer Heavy-Metal Capture and Recovery

PROBLEM: A gradient stack can place chiral layers where they most affect capture, transport, and release, but each zone's spin selectivity depends on its own composition and ordering. A gradient that is chiral at the surface yet disordered deeper ...

CISS-Aware ALD Environmental Monitoring and Compliance Data

TITLE: CISS-Aware ALD Environmental Monitoring and Compliance Data PROBLEM: ALD monitoring films with chiral underlayers drift as oxides age and chiral groups degrade, yet compliance data often record only the measured concentration. A reading tak...

CISS-Directed LbL Catalytic Conversion Films

TITLE: CISS-Directed LbL Catalytic Conversion Films PROBLEM: Catalytic films for pollutant or CO2 breakdown could in principle benefit if a chiral layer steers spin-polarised electrons toward the reaction site, yet LbL designs rarely say where tha...

Marcus-Tuned 3D-Printed Energy-Storage Electrodes

PROBLEM: Printed electrodes can architect pore networks for ion movement, yet charge storage also needs electrons to move between redox-active biosorbent groups and the collector at a Marcus-favourable rate. A pore design that helps ions but lengt...

Marcus-Guided Gradient-Multilayer Selective Ion Sensors

PROBLEM: A gradient sensor can use an outer zone to admit a target ion, a middle zone to bind it, and an inner zone to pass charge to the electrode, yet the signal depends on transfer staying favourable through every zone. If one zone's Marcus con...

Marcus-Tuned Electrospun Nanofiber Heavy-Metal Capture

PROBLEM: Electrospun fiber mats offer a large surface for biosorbent loading, yet metal ions must reach binding groups inside the fiber network and then be stabilised by electron transfer. If the fiber chemistry sets reorganization energy too high...

Marcus-Aware LbL Environmental Monitoring and Compliance Data

PROBLEM: Environmental monitoring with LbL sensing films produces readings that depend on layer history, regeneration cycles, and electron-transfer conditions, yet compliance records often keep only the final reading. When a film ages or its trans...
