OA65247: NEW HTTP OUTPUT TO ENDPOINTS SUCH AS INSTANA

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• The OMEGAMON Data Connect component of
  IBM Z OMEGAMON Data Provider has been
  enhanced with a new HTTP output.
  
  
  
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  The new HTTP output sends POST requests to HTTP or HTTPS
  endpoints such as IBM Instana Observability on z/OS (Instana).
  Each request contains a JSON object that describes a single
  record (event).
  
  The JSON from the HTTP output has the same structure as the
  existing TCP and Kafka outputs from OMEGAMON Data Provider. The
  HTTP output supports the same security (SSL/TLS) and filtering
  parameters as those existing outputs.
