Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of IBM HTTP Server 9.0 with SSL       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Multi-certificate support improvements  *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:  Apply this fix if using IBM HTTP Server     *
  *                  with SSL                                    *
  ****************************************************************
  Multiple certificates + SNI + ServerAlias did not use the
  second listed certificate when a request for the ServerAlias
  hostname arrived.
  On z/OS V2R3 and later, allow two-argument SSLServerCert to
  allow simultaneous configuration of an RSA and ECDSA
  certificate. This can also be used by multiple SSLSNIMap.
  

Problem conclusion

• Improvements were made to multi-certificate support in IBM
  HTTP Server 9.0.
  
  This fix is targeted for IBM HTTP Server fix packs:
  - 9.0.5.2
