zCDP to support CA/BroadCom IDMS SMF record collection

In ASEAN, there is a customer who uses CA/Broadcom IDMS.
Customer has some difficulty to produce any IDMS performance related report 

So.. if zCDP is able to collect IDMS SMF record in near-real time, then forwards it into Analytic Platform (such like ELK),
customer will have more value on zCDP.

CA/Broadcom provides a manual which explain how their SMF record layout looks like.
https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-mainframe-software/database-management/ca-idms/19-0/administrating/performance-monitor/performance-monitor-record-descriptions/format-of-smf-records.html

Hence, if zCDP team produces  hlq.V510.SHBODEFS(HBORS2xx) ,  hlq.V510.SHBODEFS(HBOUS2xx), 
it will be great to sell zCDP in ASEAN market.
