RACF Digital Certificates

Hi, We generated a certificate with an NOTAFTER date of 2026-12-31. When the REXX exec from SDFHSAMP is run using the NOTAFTER date, RACF complains about an invalid date range and generates the ring entry for the userid as NOTRUST. No idea why, and have tried several different times, using

No problem to correct, just an better understanding of how SMF uses than MANx datasets. I missed the page in the manual, that explains it. What I did find interesting is that it won't use MAN1 if available with space but not empty and will buffer the data not move on to another MANx dataset.
