Need to improve CHLAUTH logging on MQ for z/OS Merged

Our security policies dictate that we have to keep track of all the connection attempts.

So, before thinking of using CHLAUTH to secure our connections, we need CHLAUTH to use a separate log file (not MSTR or CHIN syslogs) to carefully log the following items for ALL the connections attempts:
• The date and time of the attempt;
• If the connection was granted or denied, or if it failed for any other reason;
• In case of denial or failure, an indication of what went wrong (unknown UserID, failed authentication, bad PW, expired PW, etc.);
• The Client UserID that was used;
• The MCA UserID;
• The server name (or hostname) targeted by the client;
• The queue manager name targeted by the client;
• The channel name used for this attempt;
• The IP address from which the attempt was made.

    Adding more logging of connection information to MQ is something we are considering for a future enhancement.
