ACF2 - z/OS

Issue/Introduction

Can two certificates for mvsdev.abcstoret,com with different issuers exist in the ACF2 database?  Would the certificates be a duplicate?

Environment

Release : 16.0

Component : ACF2 for z/OS

Resolution

There can be two certificates for mvsdev.abcstoret.com which will have different issuers, if the two certificates are owned by the same logonid the certificates would need to have different labels.

Here is an example of two certificates owned by logonid ELADD with the same SUBJDN with different ISSUERDSs:

GENCERT ELADD.CERT1 SUBJ(CN=‘mvsdev.abcstoret.com’ OU=‘MyCo’ C=US) LABEL(ELAServer) SIGNWITH(certauth Label(LocalELA1 CA))
