Add ibm iseries

[LouwMarais]

Relevant information

Added a new External IBM iSeries entity definition with the main goal being that our custom insights metric generated with an attribute of includeInIseriesEntity should be used to automatically create our IBM iSeries as an Entity and visible on distributed tracing maps

Checklist

• I've read the guidelines and understand the acceptance criteria.
• The value of the attribute marked as identifier will be unique and valid.
• I've confirmed that my entity type wasn't already defined. If it is I'm providing an explanation above.

This rule is too broad and will match any datapoints for all customers of the company that include a hostName. Could you please share the use case and metric with us on the #help-relationship-platform internal channel?

Thanks for the feedback. I hoped that the condition that I add an attribute of "includeInIseriesEntity" with any value in a log/custom metric would be the only time that the entity would be used. This is an example of how we would send an event to tag to this entity

curl --location 'https://insights-collector.newrelic.com/v1/accounts/<accountIdHere>/events' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'X-Insert-Key: <customInsgihtKeyHere> \ --data '{ "eventType": "MyCustomInsightEvent", "hostName": "MyUniqueHostname", "includeInIseriesEntity" : "*YES", "systemName": "MyUniqueSystemName", "ipAddress": "10.11.12.13", "otherAttribute1": "otherValue1", "otherAttribute2": "otherValue2" }'

I assume '#help-relationship-platform' is a slack channel, if you can also let me know how to get invited to that happy to chat more.

@otaviocarvalho let me know how I can get in touch with you if need to discuss this one more or for further advice. I am not sure how to remove the label after providing the feedback.
Thanks for your time!
