Hi Kurt, There are lots of things I dislike about black boxes and not being able to take things on blind faith. In my 39 years as a system programmer that's gotten me into trouble exactly once before I said I just will not run anything without seeing the JCL. So I pity the newer z/OS folks,

This is being caused because you are trying to access something by IP, but the certificate was issued to your DNS name. Try using the DNS name, and the problem will go away. Joe On Fri, Aug 13, 2021 at 7:59 AM Shaffer, Terri < 017d5f778222-dmarc-requ...@listserv.ua.edu> wrote: >

I would not think my SMPE CSI for my current z/OS 2.4 would have enough information to support a serverpac install. Many things have been changed that I would not count on matching what it was for the actual serverpac install. Mountpoints, dataset names, etc. Again if you looking for people
