This is the public portal for all IBM Z Hardware and Operating System related offerings. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

With enabled Certificate revocation status checking in ATTLS, system SLL offers 3 different security types for HTTP and OSCP (RevocationSecurityLevel = Low, Medium or High)
Low
Certificate validation does not fail if the OCSP responder or HTTP server specified in the HTTP URL value in the CDP extension cannot be contacted.
Medium
Certificate validation requires the OCSP responder or the HTTP server in an HTTP URL value in the CDP extension to be able to be contacted. For an OCSP responder, it must be able to provide a valid certificate revocation status. If the certificate status is revoked or unknown, certificate validation fails. For an HTTP server in the CDP extension, it must be able to be contacted and provide a CRL.
High
Certificate validation requires revocation information to be provided by the OCSP responder or HTTP server. If OCSP revocation checking by using the AIA extension is enabled, the OCSP responder specified in the certificate must be able to be contacted and provide valid certificate revocation status. If HTTP CRL checking is enabled, the HTTP server specified in the HTTP URL values in the CDP extension must be able to be contacted and provide a CRL.
Depending on the chosen security level the SSL handshake will NOT fail if
- the HTTP server cannot be contacted (security level Low) or
- the HTTP server could be contacted but do not provide a valid certificate revocation status (security level Medium)
There is no option to choose that the SSL handshake will NOT fail for both cases.
With this request a new security level should be provided to cover both cases above.
