IKYP008E   DIRECTORY POST UNSUCCESSFUL. LDAP DATA LIBRARY MODULE RC = nnnn

Explanation

PKI Services background certificate processing is attempting to post information (such as a certificate or CRL) to a directory. The post was unsuccessful. The OCSF Data Library Module (LDAPDL) return code is displayed in the message.

System action

The information is not posted now. The post request remains in the PKI Services request database to be reattempted later. If posting continues to be unsuccessful for one week, the information is removed from the request database.

System programmer response

Determine the cause of the failure from the return code displayed and take appropriate action. These return codes are documented in z/OS Open Cryptographic Services Facility Application Programming. If the error is LDAPDL_NO_SUCH_OBJECT, the LDAP entry could not be created because the required suffix does not exist. Check the PKI Services log to determine the entry that could not be created, as indicated on messages IKYC005I and IKYC008I. If the entry should be posted to LDAP, you need to define the suffix in the LDAP server configuration file and recycle the LDAP server. For more information, see Steps for installing and configuring LDAP and z/OS IBM Tivoli Directory Server Administration and Use for z/OS.

If you want PKI Services to bypass LDAP posting for certificates with missing suffixes, set RetryMissingSuffix=F in the PKI Services pkiserv.conf configuration file. Then, stop and restart the PKI Services daemon. For more information, see Steps for tailoring the LDAP section of the configuration file.
