XCOM Data Transport - Linux PC

Issue/Introduction

Need to upgrade XCOM for Linux 11.0 SP00 to be able to support TLS 1.2 ciphers.
What XCOM for Linux version supports TLS 1.2 and please provide the link to download it?

Environment

XCOM™ Data Transport® for Linux PC

Resolution

  1. Support for TLS 1.2 with XCOM for Linux started with release 11.6 SP01: XCOM Data Transport for UNIX/Linux 11.6.1 > Release Notes> Enhanced Features > Service Pack 11.6.01
    and continues in version 12.0(see below)

  2. To download the 11.6 SP01 software please follow these steps:

    Go to: Product Downloads and download:
    CA XCOM Data Transport for Linux PC r11.6 SP01 - Product Package
    DVD10172026E.iso

  3. The upgrade steps to 11.6 SP01 are located here: XCOM Data Transport for UNIX/Linux 11.6.1 > Installing > Install Using ISO Conventional Method > Upgrade Using ISO Conventional Method

    NOTE: For this particular scenario i.e. an upgrade from 11.0 SP00, a direct automatic upgrade to 11.6 SP01 is not supported and the manual upgrade steps are documented under: XCOM Data Transport for UNIX/Linux 11.6.1 > Installing > Install Using ISO Conventional Method > Upgrade from Release 11.0

  4. After doing the upgrade install the latest SP01 patch to ensure avoiding any known problems. Only the latest patch needs to be installed because XCOM patches are cumulative i.e. contain all fixes created since the previous service pack they are built on.
    Go to Linux 11.6 Solutions and download the latest patch.

Additional Information

The alternative option is to upgrade to XCOM for Linux 12.0.  More details here: XCOM Data Transport for UNIX/Linux 12.0 > Release Notes
To access the 12.0 software follow the same steps in #2 above. In 2c instead of using the hyperlink for Release=11.6 (Service Pack=SP01), use Release=12.0 (Service Pack=0000)
