APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Clicking the Health Check button does not provide report if
    used in the AT-TLS perspective and a rule has multiple local
    ports or multiple remote ports configured, and the secondary
    map setting is set to on.
    
    
    Keyword(s): CA, z/OSMF
    

Local fix

  • It is incorrect to specify multiple ports with Secondary Map
    enabled, and only the last port specified would be used. If
    this is what you really want then you should create multiple
    rules for each individual port.

    This apar contains cumulative maintenance fixes for the
    following z/MF Configuration Assistant (CA) defects:
    
    - When deleting backing store files in z/OSMF, .LCK file
    obtained during the delete process were not getting deleted.
    - Prolog history and comments are lost after opening a
    pre-V1R12 backing store file.
    - Clicking the Health Check button does not provide report if
    used in the AT-TLS perspective and a rule has multiple local
    ports configured, and the secondary map setting is set to on.
    - The list of reusable rules in the IPSec perspective could get
    incorrectly removed.
    - IPSec policy files created by Configuration Assistant
    contained duplicate IpDynVpnActions and IpDataOffers. This has
    been changed to not produce the duplicates.
