    Create a workflow for zERT Provisioning - Database, RACF

    At the moment, one has to customize members (IZUZNADT, IZUZNADI, IZUNASEC ) in SYS1.SAMPLIB to provision a database for zERT and grant access to zERT. My idea is to use a workflow which would allow to do the same but inside a z/OSMF workflow.

    zERT - Show a hint when zOSMF NCA will generate multiple policy agent rules

    As there is no 1:n mapping from the zERT rules to the implementable policy, zERT will generate as many rules as required and append a suffix like ~1, ~2, ~n. However when coding those rules in the zOSMF NCA GUI there is not hint that the resulting...

    Granular control on TIMEWAIT and FINWAIT2

    Right now, TIMEWAIT and FINWAIT2 could be specified in TCPIP.PROFILE GLOBALCONFIG. However, different TCP/IP connection might have different requirements on the values. It is good to have a policy-based management such that granular control could ...

    zERT - Allow filtering for cipher suites

    Please add a filter criteria for CipherSuites, like 009D or C027. So it is a quick view over used certificates, and we could reduce our AT-TLS rules for longer unused ciphers. Alternative would be a filtering with multiple parts, like AES_CBC_128 ...

    TCPIP Sysplex Ditributor SERVERWLM low weights management

    We have a large database ( 6 DB2 members, more than 10000 DB2 transactions per second) where DDF TCP traffic is balanced with VIPA SERVERWLM algorithm. In normal condition WLM weights are high enough to spread new sockets in a balanced way. When t...

    VTAM Connection Network Pending PU Processing

    When a Connection Network PU goes into a pending state during connection establishment, VTAM does not perform any INOP Processing as it does for native Enterprise Extender connections. The pending PU remains in the pending state for an indefinite ...
