ANR2578W and ANR2579E - Include node hostname information

One of the roadblocks we have at the moment is that the missed and failed ANR messages do not display the actual hostname of the node.

ANR2578W Schedule schedule name in domain domain name for node node name has missed its scheduled start up window.
ANR2579E Schedule schedule name in domain domain name for node node name failed (return code return code).

Would it be possible to add the hostname information in the ANR message?

    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.

    Currently we are using native SP function to send EIF events to Netcool, which does NOT contain critical data for performing IBM/GTS automations to restart/rerun backups.
    SP should send include the following data about the target server/SP Client in the Event sent to Netcool:
    a) FQDN or whatever defined as the hostname on the target server
    b) IP Address

    1) Is there a configuration within SP to include the above data in all events generated by SP to Netcool. Even Code Level configuration as a "tactical" workaround will meet IBM needs.
    2) In addition, need an enhancement in the product to include this above data in all events generated by SP to Netcool.
