Full support of SMF102 data

CDP / ZLDA only supports a limited subset of SMF102 records.  At a minimum, IFCID 145 and IFCID 142 are required; ideally all of the fields within SMF102 are needed.  The customer has chosen Splunk as a strategic platform for enterprise log analysis.

There is a security requirement to be able to see who has made updates to specific db2 tables and what this updates were, if someone has been changing audit flags on db2 tables etc.

Today ZLDA is not able to send this SMF102 data.

    Hi there - the CDP team will plan to support the IFCID 145 and IFCID 142 records. The scope to support all the records within the SMF 102 is too large as there are over 400 IFCIDs. We would reccomend opening up future Ideas for specific IFCIDs as they are needed. Thank you!
