No need to apologize. I had no idea there was another product with the TLA of TSS besides Top Secret. 😊

The only thing I can say in my defense is the product is named Broadcom CA Top Secret. Getting the name correct or providing a little more context would have helped. (Also spelling "question" correctly, but now I am quibbling.) And no, I know nothing about GENCERT in Top Secret. I did ask the Goo Gal and she came up with https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/ca-mainframe-software/security/ca-top-secret-for-z-os/17-0/administrating/issuing-commands-to-communicate-administrative-requirements/command-functions/gencert-function-generate-a-certificate.html__;!!KjMRP1Ixj6eLE0Fj!v0p2lmm_kzD1VsTpNuwAfIbUcCEaOgaJ8ecUWVzlQsj3A5KhJ9Yfp2mXz--t_Hl1yrr91zXGrXExniPE2A$ which looks pretty similar. LISTSERV will probably muck up that link. Try Googling <broadcom top secret gencert command>.. One of the links returned had a half dozen or more examples.
