I was not advocating having a z/OS DISPLAY command over monitor/reporting in RMF. Some of the information is monitored by RMF today and RMF will enhance their support to report the number of available large pages. I think there is also value in having a quick and handy z/OS command that will give you the current large page utilization statistics.
