Discontinue use of Infoprint Server aophinvd, aoplogd, and aopsdbd daemons

Description

In z/OS V2R2, the following daemons are no longer provided with Infoprint Server:
aophinvd
Historical Inventory daemon.
aoplogd
Common message log daemon.
aopsdbd
Search database daemon.

The functions that are previously provided by the aophinvd, aoplogd, and aopsdbd daemons are now performed by the aopd daemon. You do not need to take any steps to update your Infoprint Server configuration. However, if you use an automation product to monitor daemons, you might need to make configuration changes to the product.
