DB2 Record Support for Types IFCID 412, IFCID 411, IFCID 402

We're using IBM Z Operational Analytics in our environment both for Syslog analysis and for several type of SMF records to be collected and forwarded to other enterprise analytics systems as well. We'd like to enhance those records with DB2 SMF records and especially with record types IFCID 412, IFCID 411, IFCID 402. DB2 DBAs , application server admins, system programmers and application developers would benefit from seeing and doing analytics based on that data real-time . IBM Z Operational Analytics so far has been very helpful with that type of analysis and we'd like to see it improved with new kind of data additions.
