Externalize IDAA internal configuration / tuning parameters visible by customer

Wells Fargo’s Audit Department requires monitoring of configuration parameters.

At least monthly (in Database Operation case its daily), Enterprise Compute Services (ECS) Drift Identification Automation compares deployed configuration data to the approved baselines to identify drift. ECS reviews and analyzes drift reporting to validate drift instances. Validated drift is communicated to Product Owner/Delegate for prioritization and remediation as per the Technology Configuration Management Policy.

Identified exceptions are executed via the Standard Exception Management Process.

For example: if a Db2 for z/OS zparm is changed, Database team gets a notification that which particular zparm was changed, the before image, and the after image, and then we may need to document why or which change request was used to implement.
