Enhance Advanced Audit history database to support detail data

The Advanced Audit product supports a history database which allows the storage administrator to view trends over time based on audit results. Currently the data stored in the history database consists of error type and counts only. To enhance usability it would be good if the history capabilities of Advanced Audit for DFSMShsm could also include detail level data, especially data set name. This would significantly enhance the usability of this feature by enabling greater access to historical detail which can help identify failure trends in the environment.
