Allow a second ATTLS rule for the inbound data connection, with SecondaryMap Off, when using RACF.

Allow a second ATTLS rule for the inbound data connection, with SecondaryMap Off, when using RACF. If using RACF, then using two different ATTLS rules for FTP is not supported and the FTP data connection would fail with ATTLS RC5023 which means: AT-TLS called initACEE with a nested ENVR object and requested a managed ACEE, which is not supported. If AT-TLS was processing a data connection from the FTP server, ensure the AT-TLS policy has SecondaryMap On coded for the FTP control connection. A separate TTLSRule for the FTP data connection is not supported. This is supported with other SAF like TSS. Would be helpful if RACF would support this.

    Looking to see how to redirect this idea to the proper z/OS Comm. Server team.

    We have received this idea, but it is assigned to the Comm. Server for Data Center Deployment which does not support or interact with RACF. This should be reassigned to the z/OS Comm. Server team.
