Dynamically adding file definition to CDP by cooperation with UCD

Hi,
in our development environment there are many liberty profile instances within cics (up to 50) and development has the possibility to delopy their applications in any liberty instance by their own via ucd. These applications write their own log files with specific names via log4j (cdp generic zfs files).
It isn't possible for us (sysprog) to track every deployment and then update the cdp configuration.
cdp has the ability to use wildcards for the filenames and paths but these wildcard filename are also used in the cdp records that are send to splunk.
With this wildcard filenames in splunk developers aren't able to associate the log records to the specific liberty profile instance.

    Thank you for opening the RFE for IBM Z Common Data Provider. As we strive to have the best integration with Splunk, we will look to include this request in an upcoming product deliverable.
