APPLID values for CICS Transaction Server might not be correct in Log Analysis user interface

For CICS® Transaction Server for z/OS®, the application identifier (APPLID) values might not be correct in the user interface of IBM® Operations Analytics - Log Analysis.

Symptom

APPLID values for CICS Transaction Server for z/OS are expected to be provided in grid views and patterns in the Log Analysis user interface. However, if the APPLID value is not present in the CICS Transaction Server for z/OS message text, the first word of the message text is incorrectly used as the APPLID.

Cause

CICS Transaction Server for z/OS typically includes the APPLID as the first word of the message. However, when CICS Transaction Server for z/OS messages do not include the APPLID as the first word in the message, the z/OS SYSLOG Insight Pack incorrectly assumes that the first word of the message is an APPLID.

Solution

No workaround is available.
