This is a migration check. The check detects the use of services which will not be supported in subsequent releases of ICSF. The check is not active when ICSF is started and must be activated to perform the check. Once activated the check will be performed on a daily basis.

The check output is obtained by selecting (s) the check on the Health Checker menu. If the check determines that deprecated services are being used then an exception is generated.

CSFH0011I Cryptographic Service CSFAKEX is currently used,              
but support for this service is being removed in subsequent releases.   
                                                                        
  Explanation:  The specified callable service is not being supported in
    subsequent releases, thus in the future workloads using the service 
    may fail.                                                           
                                                                        
  System Action:  There is no effect on this system.                    
                                                                        
  Operator Response:  Report this exception to the System Programmer.   
                                                                        
  System Programmer Response:  Alert the installation security          
    Administrator and application/middleware administrators for this    
    system.                                                             
                                                                        
  Problem Determination:  Investigate applications using this service   
    and determine appropriate actions to remove or replace the use of   
    this service.
