Re: PTF providing CMS based SSL support
Hello, I'm getting ready to order the PTFs for the enablement of the z/VM 540 SSL server. Currently, I have 5.4 RSU 0801 installed and running in test mode. Should I order a later RSU level too and/or Updates for for CMS Service?

Re: PTF providing CMS based SSL support
I just installed the SSL PTF. I first did the 5402RSU (0802) refresh from my 5.4 0801. I encountered no problems so far. I suggest you consider doing the RSU service first.

Re: PTF providing CMS based SSL support
Mark, does that mean the SPE 2 tape is available, or just these individual PTFs?

Re: PTF providing CMS based SSL support
David, I just checked on IBMLink and the APAR VM64471 (for z/VM 5.4.0) is still in certification. It looks like Mark's info is only for the SSL server. Too bad!!! HITACHI DATA SYSTEMS Raymond E.

Supposedly it is going to be available this month. From the announcement, you need to watch for the PTF for APAR PK65850. When it is available, it will drag along five additional PTFs, two for TCP/IP and three for CMS. You will need all six to make it go. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

Don't let your ears fool you! The first time is the hardest. You have to hack your way through the thick underbrush, watching for snakes, dragons, and orcs. Very messy. (Eew! What *is* that smell?)

If we get enough orders for it, it goes on the RSU. If it is new function, it typically goes on the RSU. If it is important for everyone to have it, it goes on the RSU. If it closes a security/integrity hole, it goes on the RSU. If it pre/co-reqs something already on the RSU, it goes on the RSU. If the developer can make some other case for it going on the RSU, it goes. In the case of SSL, it is planned to appear on the 0901 RSU. We just cut the 0802 RSU - don't look for it there. Don't ask me when 0901 will appear. Only the gods know that and they haven't Spoken to me. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott

You will need all six to make it go. The actual APAR/PTFs to watch for are: For TCP/IP: PK65850 / UK40952 PK73085 / UK40952 Yes, one PTF will get you the fix for both APARs. The PTF is not yet available in RETAIN however you can place an order for it now. Once the PTF becomes available the order will be fulfilled. For CMS: VM64540 / UM32541 VM64569 / UM32592 VM64570 / UM32594 UM32541 is not yet available in RETAIN, UM32592 and UM32694 are. Best Regards, Les Geer IBM z/VM and Linux Development

See http://www.vm.ibm.com/related/tcpip/tcsslsvc.html. It is planned that UK40952 will get you ALL the PTFs. I'll post here when it's time to order, with the latest info from the developers. I do suggest the folks start looking at http://www.vm.ibm.com/related/tcpip/vmsslinf.html so that you can begin to prepare. Alan Altmark z/VM Development IBM Endicott
Re: PTF providing CMS based SSL support
Les, you are missing PK75268 / UK41626. See PTF UK41626 is already a pre-req of UK40952. Therefore all that is needed to order is UK40952 which will obtain the support for the two new APARs plus drag the existing APAR PK75268 Best Regards, Les Geer IBM z/VM and Linux Development
