z/OS MPF behavior change -- comments please:
To make a long story short: we are proposing to change MPF processing so
that it no longer forces matching messages to hardcopy. If a message is
issued requesting that the message be hardcopied (the default), MPF will
honor it; if the message is issued requesting that the message not be
hardcopied, MPF will no longer override the request (forcing the message to be
hardcopied).
If we decide to make this change, it will be done on a release boundary with
appropriate Interface Change Notifications (ICNs) to the venders in advance
of the release being available.
Make sense? I'd like to hear your comments...
Sounds good to me. To pacify the backward compatible bevavior types,
this change should be made a default with the ability to still force
the no-hardcopy override via a parm setting. IOW: Allow the user to
require the old behavior for those who want the hardcopy to still
contain the message in all cases.
