    "<JAVA_HOME>/bin/ikeycmd
    -Djava.security.properties=<custom-file>" doesn't work.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • In order to improve the jar checks, the java.security file needs
    to be loaded earlier. However, it was loaded prematurely even
    before setting the user provided security properties. As a
    result, the user supplied values for properties were not
    honoured.
    

Problem conclusion

  • JDK has been updated to delay the loading of the java.secuirty
    file till it is required for the first instance of  the security
    verification so that  all the properties are properly set while
    loading the java.security file.
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
