Add start mirroring function to new Navigator

The original Navigator and 'old' Navigator for i had an option to start disk pool mirroring on a newly created ASP or IASP, avoiding partition downtime to start mirroring in Dedicated Service Tools. That function is not available in new Navigator. With the now common use of NVMe devices, requiring mirrored protection instead of RAID, green-screen DST is required in order to start mirroring on a user ASP or IASP which results in a partition outage. Can this function be added back into new Navigator?

    Thank you for submitting your Idea. IBM does not intend to provide a solution to this Idea at this time, so it is being closed.
    While we agree that your Idea has value, it ranks lower than other enhancements in our backlog. Since it is unlikely to be implemented in the next 3 years, we are closing the Idea but will keep it on an internal list of valid ideas to consider for the future.
