Report Shared Temp Storage alerts using Poolname instead of Logstream Prefix in CICS Performanc Analyzer

The CICS Performance Analyzer tool currently uses the S1PREF field when reporting on alerts for Shared Temp Storage Servers, which is the Shared Temp Storage structure name PREFIX. This name is always going to be DFHXQLS_ by IBM's rules for setting up a CICS Shared Temp Storage server. Using S1PREF makes the alerts for shared temp storage very vague if your installation has more than one set of Shared Temp storage Servers since all of them will report against DFHXQLS_

If the Structure Pool Name (S1POOL) field were used in the alert reporting instead, the alerts would be useful to an installation that has more than just one set of shared temp storage servers.
