"DBRM load module cross-reference feature" be incorporate into Db2 Administration Tool

As of April 30th, of 2020, IBM Db2 Bind Manager got  'end of service' and would not be supported anymore.

Some Bind Manager Function were integrated to the IBM Db2 Administration Tool v12.1 but "DBRM load module cross-reference feature" was not incorporated into Db2 Administration Tool as part of the BND retirement.

All BND modules were deleted from customer Db2 tools datasets and some customer application batch jobs abended with ABEND=S806 due to BNDA006 and BNDA009 not found.

    Thank you for submitting this Db2 for z/OS Idea.

    After giving the request a comprehensive review, we have determined that we will not be implementing this as it is not within our list of prioritized items for the upcoming 24 month roadmap.

    We appreciate your input to the Db2 for z/OS development team. We also hope that you will continue to submit ideas for improvements as customer feedback is a key component to shaping the future direction of Db2 for z/OS.

    Sincerely,

    Db2 for z/OS Team
