ChekPlex logging

ChekPlex logs requests for every component in a separate log file. These files are allocated in the CA GTS start-up JCL and assigned to the logger.

Note: For more information, see Adding a ChekPlex subsystem to CA GTS.

The default parmlib member PARMCP00 assigns the logs the following names: CPLOGSS, CPLOGTS, and CPLOGRS.
