SAVE DBCTL ID on RTA EVALUATION

Please see PMR # 40391
some of the contents are below......

We have recently created an RTADEF for our DBCTL Subsystem
We use an ACTIONDEF & a EVALDEF.
Everthing works fine.
We noticed that the DBCTL subsystem is not displayed in the EYU messges
created in our LOGS.
Is there a way to get this information displayed?
Here is what we get:
EYUPN0007W CCMASB Notify created for RTADEF RDADBCTL by MRM, 653
Context=CPLXTEST, Target=CICSTR8, Sev=VHS, Resource=DBCTLSS, Key=,
Text=RTA00017-DBCTL Conn down.
EYUPN0013W CCMASB Notify resolved for RTADEF RDADBCTL by MRM, 978
Context=CPLXTEST, Target=CICSTR8, Sev=VHS, Resource=DBCTLSS, Key=,
Text=RTA00017-DBCTL Conn up.

You can see a simular RTADEF for a DB2CONN does give us some info in
the KEY field but not for DBCTL.
Context=CPLXTEST, Target=CICSURT, Sev=VHS, Resource=DB2CONN,
Key=RCTU, Text=RTA00017-DB2 Conn down.

So does MQ, but nothing in the Key field for DBCTL.

EYUPN0007W CCMASB Notify created for RTADEF RDAMQCON
by MRM, 506
Context=CPLXTEST, Target=CICSD3AA, Sev=VHS, Resource=MQCON, Key=MQD3,
Text=RTA00031-MQ Conn down.

Is there a way to get the subsystem ID displayed for an EVALDEF for
DBCTL?
