OA60971: MVP support for detecting W3C TraceContext tracking

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as change to accomodate OEM Vendor's code.

Error description

• New function containing support for Instana transaction
  tracking (and other vendors with W3C TraceContext support)
  for HTTP calls into CICS.
  The Z APM CICS data collector now tracks
  calls entering CICS over HTTP with a valid `traceparent`
  header, allowing those calls to be displayed on a vendor
  with W3C TraceContext support.
  Also includes fix to transaction name truncation for
  transactions that issue MQPUT, and updates for
  CICS V6.1 compatibility.
