After upgrading from R12.8SP1 to SP4, Policy Server fails to connect to LDAP userstore via SSL.
[SmDsLdapConnMgr.cpp:917][ERROR][sm-Ldap-01370] SmDsLdapConnMgr Bind. Server ldapserver.test.lab : 636. Error 81-Can't contact LDAP server
When reverting the Policy Server to old version the connection works again.
There was no change to the certificate on the LDAP servers.
cert8.db was generated using the older version of Policy Server and is no longer compatible with the NSS library bundled with R12.8SP4.
