Retrieve SMAPP information a file

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

I would like to be able to extract the SMAPP information available thru the command DSPRCYAP in a file. Today the DSPRCYAP command only allows to print the information.

The information I am interested in, are:
- Estimated system access path recovery time
- Total not eligible recovery time
- Total disk storage used
- % of disk storage used
- System access path recovery time
- Include access paths
- The list of protected Access Paths
- The list of Not Eligible Access Paths

I should be able to extract the information for the System ASP and all User and Independent ASPs.

The information could be extracted either from an evolution of the DSPRCYAP or an API, or a DB2 for i Services.


Use Case:

I would like to be able to extract the SMAPP information in order to consolidate the data from multiple partitions on a single partition and monitor the SMAPP configuration.

    This new QSYS2.SMAPP_ACCESS_PATHS view was delivered in May 2023 with IBM i 7.5 PTF Group level 4 and IBM i 7.4 PTF Group level 25.

    IASP and system level SMAPP information is now returned with the ASP_INFO view, SYSTEM_STATUS_INFO view, and SYSTEM_STATUS table function.

    You can read about it on a new fact page here:

    IBM will use this request as input to planning but no commitment is made or implied. This request will be updated in the future if IBM implements it.

    IBM has received the requirement and is evaluating it. IBM will provide a response after evaluation is complete.
