NonStop Connect Direct - RFE - SYSOPTS in a snode RUN TASK should be displayed always

If a snode sends a file to us and then makes a “run task” using TACL, then we cannot see what happens in this run task.

Only in case run task has CC > 0 then we see in the sysopts what was the infile that was started by this run task TACL.

But we have often the problem, that run task has CC = 0, but nobody can tell what was started. Even on the snode site

nobody can tell us, because it runs automatically or it is hidden deep inside of a script.

Do you think we would have a chance to get a parameter implemented, with which we could always see the sysopts of an externally started run task ?

    Thank you for your patience as we worked on this enhancement. I'm pleased to say that we were able to deliver this in v3.6.02 iFix27. Please visit our Fix Central website to pull down this or newer maintenance to start gaining the benefits of the enhancement.

    Thank you for opening this enhancement request with IBM. I have reviewed it in detail with my development team and we agree that this would be a worthwhile enhancement. I have accepted this as an uncommitted candidate and we will look to add it to the C:D NonStop roadmap moving forward.

    Sincerely,
