For Uniform Clustering, we have a need to know more easily that the QMGR connection changed without having to query the connection for QMGR name for all MQ API calls constantly

Need a way to list userid usage to satisfy audit inquires about their continued use - some kind of MQ Variable to list userid in the error logs by turning on an Audit variable in the QMGR definition. This is about MQ Client connections and MCAUSER settings.

Useful to reduce risks of invalid userid usage to satisfy yearly audits of service accounts. These types of inquiries come up yearly. Userid and application tag would help us understand why the userid is in use.

if user sign-on to the queue manager fails we see the RACF-Message, but there exists no correponding massage which can identify the Channel or IP-Adress of the causer
