API Enhancement for AS400 Active Jobs Details in Instana

Hi Team,

As of now, in Instana for AS400 devices under the "Active Jobs Information on IBM" parameter, we are able to fetch the following column details through the API query provided by the Instana vendor:

Job Name
User Name
Elapsed CPU Percentage
Temporary Storage

However, API query is currently not available for the below 2 columns:

Job Status
Job Type

To address this gap, I am raising an AHA request to enhance the existing API and include these pending fields over there. This will help us retrieve complete active job details for better monitoring and analysis.

Additionally, we would like to highlight that we have received separate API queries for some of the above columns. However, there is no single API query available that provides all the required columns detail together. We request the development team to unify an API query that can fetch all these fields simultaneously in one response.
