    Policy Agent LDAP Configuration for IDS and QoS

    What is being removed or changed

    z/OS 3.2 Communications Server is planned to be the last release to support using an LDAP server as a source for Intrusion Detection Services (IDS) and Quality of Service (QoS) policy definitions. This capability is enabled through the ReadFromDirectory statement in the Policy Agent configuration file, which allows Policy Agent to retrieve policy definitions from an LDAP server.

    Required customer migration or upgrade actions

    Customers who use LDAP-based policy definitions for IDS or QoS should migrate to supported alternatives, such as local Policy Agent configuration files or IBM Network Configuration Assistant for z/OS Communications Server. Any LDAP dependencies for policy retrieval should be removed before upgrading beyond z/OS 3.2.
