NFS Server Tracing Check using MVS Health Checker

Our company uses zNFS to facilitate data transfers between z/OS and AIX servers. Our zNFS servers always used to run with the default CTINFS00 settings: Info, Warning, Error, and FFDC (mode="ON"). Following a recent incident in our production environment, these settings led to a significant increase in CPU usage over a prolonged period, buffer shortages, and flooding of the NFS log with logic error messages: GFSA304I and GFSA308I. We have decided to change our defaults by turning off: Info and Warning (only Error and FFDC remain enabled), effectively reducing the tracing level to "MIN" mode.
If the tracing mode is not in "MIN" mode, ie. full tracing mode ("ON"), then the MVS Health Checker should be used to detect and generate an exception (alert).

    This item is a valid requirement but unlikely to be given high enough priority to be placed into the product plan. If this requirement is high value, please re-open it, or open a new requirement.
