Issue/Introduction

When doing an INSERT certificate command, the INSERT command is expected to propagate the change over to the target(receiving) side, but it did not. Getting the “ACFC1199 Command sent to 01 nodes” message on the sending side but the command does not appear to execute on the target side, why?

Environment

Release:
Component: ACF2MS

Resolution

In order for the INSERT certdata DSN('my,.pds') command to work on the target(receiving) node, the PDS must exist on the receiving node since only the command is propagated and not the certificate data from the PDS. If the PDS does not exist the command will fail.
