  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR includes an enhancement to    *
  *                      IBM z/OS DLA V320.                      *
  ****************************************************************
  This APAR enables IBM Z/OS DLA V320 to discover MQ Queue Sharing
  Group information and put it into the IdML book for individual
  MQ subsystem.
  

Problem conclusion

• To enable IBM z/OS DLA V320 to discover Queue Sharing Group
  information from IBM MQ for z/OS, users must SET the
  'ENABLE_ZRDS' to YES in z/OS DLA configuration file, for
  example: IZDCDEF.
  
  The new "MQQueueSharingGroup" resource will be outputted into
  the IdML books for each discovered MQ subsystem.
  
  The book for 'IBM Discovery Library Adapter for z/OS 3.2 User
  Guide SC27-2893-01' requires updates with the following content
  for the new discovers MQ Queue Sharing Group resource.
  
  1. The new MQ resource is added to 'MQ Subsystem' section
    under the Chapter of 'Appendix C. z/OS DLA data model class
    types represented in CDM'.
  
  sys.zOS.MQQueueSharingGroup
    A group of queue managers that can access the same shared
    queues is called a queue sharing group. Each member of the
    queue sharing group has access to the same set of shared
    queues.
  
  Attributes:
   - Name: Name of the MQ Queue Sharing Group
   - GroupFunction: Literal "MQ Queue Sharing Group"
  
  Requirements for discovery:
   - Discover options MQ is enabled.
   - SET ENABLE_ZRDS is YES.
  
  CDM specific information:
   - Label: name-MQ QueueSharingGroup-sysplex,
   - Id(IdML): name-sysplex-MQQueueSharingGroup
   - sourceToken(IdML): name-sysplex-MQQueueSharingGroup
  
  Naming rules:
   - Name and contains relationship from Sysplex.
  
  Relationships:
   - Link type: contains
   - Source: sys.zOS.Sysplex
   - Target: sys.zOS.MQQueueSharingGroup
  
  2. The Relationships of 'sys.zOS.MQSubsystem' requires to add
     new relationships when MQ QueueSharingGroup discovers:
  
   - Link type: federates
   - Source: sys.zOS.MQQueueSharingGroup
   - Target: sys.zOS.MQSubsystem
  
   - Link type: uses
   - Source: sys.zOS.MQSubsystem
   - Target: sys.zOS.MQQueueSharingGroup
