IBM MQ Container : Inclusion of Explanation section of the logs in json format Merged

Hi Team,

The MQ container sample just forwards the standard JSON log produced by the MQ queue manager (e.g. AMQERR01.json). This includes all the "inserts" into the longer log message, so you don't lose any information entirely, but it does not include explanation section of the log event for details.

I think the explanation is not included in order to keep the JSON logs smaller, and not cause huge log lines but our use case really requires it.

We need your help in fixing the logs in json format section.

In Json format section, the explanation section is missing

========================================

logs:

format: basic

debug : false

Logs written in general format.

=========================

17/11/2014 10:32:29 - Process(2132.1) User(USER_1) Program(runmqchi.exe)

Host(HOST_1) Installation(Installation1)

VRMF(8.0.0.0) QMgr (A.B.C)

AMQ9542: Queue manager is ending.

EXPLANATION:

The program will end because the queue manager is quiescing.

ACTION:

None.

=========================================================

Logs is Written in JSON format

Config

=================
