  (1) IBM Z Operational Log and Data Analytics Provides
      definition files for the Common Data Provider Configuration
      Tool. Two of these definition files, zlda.streams.json and
      log-forwarder.streams.json, both provide entries for common
      log types such as the z/OS System Console and CICS MSGUSR
      logs. Although the configuration tool is able to remove
      duplications, differences in the definitions can cause
      confusion.
  
  (2) Beginning with 5.1.0.7, the Problem Insights server -- if
      installed on z/OS UNIX System Services -- did not provide
      parity with the authentication and authorization
      capabilities provided on Linux. It supported only two user
      IDs:
           - One administrative user ID (piadmin)
           - One non-administrative user ID (piuser)
  

Problem conclusion

• (1) All duplicate definitions have been removed from the
      zlda.streams.json configuration file.
  
  (2) The Problem Insights server on z/OS UNIX System Services is
      now accompanied by the same Keycloak authentication service
      that was previously available only on Linux. This service
      allows the definition of arbitrary numbers of administrative
      and non-administrative user IDs for the Problem Insights
      server. The predefined user IDs shipped with the product
      continue to be 'piadmin' and 'piuser'; both use 'changeme'
      as the default password.
