    The CAAC has reviewed this Idea and recommends that IBM view this as a medium priority requirement that should be addressed. If there is any chance to put resources to this request, it should be done as soon as possible to add missing information from the Performance Data Investigator.


    Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual Ideas on the broader IBM i community, and has therefore reviewed your Idea.

    IBM agrees with the request and a solution appears to be desirable and feasible. IBM intends to provide a solution. However, IBM's plans may change and no commitment is made that a solution will be provided.
