CICS/PA support for static field

We would like to add the plex name as a JSON element when sending to Splunk. I'm not sure where the plex name can be sourced - it could be a variable, or we could determine it from the image name (group name?). It could be a variable that we can supply at run time, or it could be a static field we include (and then change the report name based on the data).

    As discussed previously, this can be achieved using the SYSPLEX field on zCEE SMF 123 data which is available as part of the new support for zCEE SMF 123 data which has been delivered via PTF for APAR PH37264.

    As discussed at today's meeting, you can achieve this using the SYSPLEX field on zCEE SMF 123 data. This field is available as part of the new support for zCEE SMF 123 data which is being delivered via PTF for APAR PH37264. If you need to correlate this data with the CICS CMF 101 Type 1 data then you can use the CICS PA Application Grouping function. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/cics-pa/5.4.0?topic=dialog-application-grouping
