Enhance 119 subytype 70 and 3 to include jobname information

I would like to see a field added to the 119 subtype 70 and 3 SMF records so that the jobname can be captured. Jobname information is critical when remediating unencrypted FTP's for PCI.

    In order to further help my case I opened PMR 61437 442 000 with zSecure. At Publix we use zSecure Audit to do all of our SMF reporting.

    In PMR 61437 442 000 zSecure level 3 is quite clear there is nothing they can do to match up type 30 SMF records to determine any job name when it comes through an FTP session.

    Not been able to report on jobnames is causing us great pain as we remediate EVERY FTP coming into or gonig out of our LPARs in the biggest PCI remediation project ever to ensure alL FTPs are encrypted.

    Please I impore you to add a field to record the jobname to make our lives (and the lives of other customers) easier.

    Sincerely,
    Joel Tilton
