Hi Paul
Same issue here two weeks ago for two critical applications. This caused
several hours of downtime
for the applications by the time we diagnose the issue.
As we have no control when customers and or partners update or change the
CA that signed their cert.
I think it would be a great idea to have well know CA's automatically
added by IBM.

Sent by: "MIDRANGE-L" <midrange-l-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
We had a 3rd party application update their SSL wildcard cert this past
Saturday.
Our application failed with below errors.
SSL_Handshake() error [IBM -23]: Certificate is not signed by a trusted
certificate authority.
Error 51: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK
Closing connection #0
SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK
Their new cert required us to have the below root and intermediate CA
added to our system store.
DigiCertGlobalRootCA.crt
DigiCertSHA2SecureServerCA.crt
The folks that maintain SSL for our Windows and Linux servers stated these
CA updates are automatic and included with their OS updates.
My doesn't IBM do the same for i?
Have new and updated CAs applied to system store via PTFs.
Or are there any processes/procedures to be more proactive for future SSL
updates?
Thank You
