Specify product specific message id instead of BPXM023I with JZOS API MvsConsole.wto

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Z Digital Integration Hub is a Java based strategic hybrid cloud integration product on z/OS for realtime information flow between z/OS core systems and hybrid cloud application. We are currently implementing the support for STOP, DISPLAY and SHUTDOWN command from MVS console as an important requirement from a major customer.

We are using JZOS API MvsCommandCallback and the command responses are written to SYSLOG using the JZOS API MvsConsole.wto. The messages written to WTO are currently using the common message id BPXM023I. Customer wants product specific message id (for example HVLZC7501E) instead of the generic message id BPXM023I. The Java on Z application requires an option with JZOS API MvsConsole.wto to provide product specific message id.

    The BPXM023I system console message ID is only included for unauthorized users. If the caller is
    authorized (permitted to BPX.CONSOLE or has an EUID=0) then the system does not include
    "BPXM023I" in the message text and only the text specified by the caller. If the user ID that the
    application runs under is permitted to BPX.CONSOLE, then the application can put its desired
    message ID at the beginning of the text supplied by the JZOS API MvsConsole.wto and the system
    will output exactly what the application specified without prepending BPXM023I.

    This design point is to prevent unauthorized users from issuing messages with spoofed message IDs.
