    a) and b) you(your automation) should know from other tables (you get the actlog message from some source, right?)
    c) is already explicitly in the message!
    d) and e) are not glued to any specific node, Spectrum Protect Node is effectively only account, system it connets from for purpose of backup may vary between runs, one backup node can run on different system - backup of cluster resources, network shares, and such. In case of missed backup, this information does not exist, as Spectrum Protect Server has no means to determine which system should the schedule start from.
    This request doesn't not indicate reasonably desirable level of knowledge of tool you are trying to automate.
    I would like to downwote this if at all possible.

    This request may not be delivered within the release currently under development, but the theme is aligned with the current multi-year strategy. IBM may consider and evaluate any RFE Community feedback for this request through activities such as voting. IBM will update this request in the future.
