    The Power Schedules are stored in user index QUSRSYS/QEZPWRCLN and can be extracted in SQL by using the USER_INDEX_ENTRIES table function:

    select *
      from table( QSYS2.USER_INDEX_ENTRIES( USER_INDEX     => 'QEZPWRCLN'
                                          , USER_INDEX_LIBRARY     => 'QUSRSYS' ) )

    The CAAC has reviewed this IBM Idea and recommends that IBM not implement this request.

    This is available in third-party products; you can use the system value to retrieve.

    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 IBM Ideas on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your Idea.

    For more information about CAAC, see www.common.org/caac

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

    The SQL Tools POWER_SCHEDULE table function and View return this information along with the current QIPLDATTIM system value. Note: This is a low-cost, 3rd-party license program and not currently affiliated with IBM.
