    Since CIS Tool latest version (v4.x) dropped support for generating AIX security reports based on CIS AIX 7.x benchmark; There is currently NO tool, which would generate decent HTML security reports from AIX systems. And that is a HUGE gap in secu...

    For High Availability - remove hostname dependency

    High available setups require the use of a service-IP address. The existing hostname dependency make such kind of HA requirements very challenging. Removing the hostname dependency would make such requests a lot easier to implement.

    Display Spooled File needs to support better F14/F15/F16 find options

    Search is NOT case-sensitive so we are often forced to guess the case. Also it would be very helpful to have F15=FindPrev since we are forever jumping to bottom of joblog and then paging up to find a previous Escape message.

    F15 to search backwards, vs. F16 to search forwards

    Add ORDER BY Creation Date/Time to WRKSPLF and add *USRPRF option and System Value for Same

    Our end users tend to keep SPOOLED files "forever" so the more days that pass, the longer their list of SPOOLED files becomes. I would be extremely helpful to provide a User Profile-based option for "SPOOLED File Sequencing" that is applied when U...
