    Hello Juraj,

    yes, I tested them and even opened a call at IBM because of the wrong hostname in one of the scripts. It was ca. 6 months ago (August-September?) and I thought it is already fixed. Unfortunately I can't find APAR right now.

    Yes, you're right - these is the problem I had. I will check the scripts later again on my test system. Let's see what is wrong this time :-)

    New APARs for AIX emgr_check_ifixes command (checks the availability for security interim fixes for the current operating system level).

    https://lnkd.in/g2qMUbzt

    The CRL parsing error (which causes the failure "HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request ...") will be fixed with

    APAR IJ45198 for AIX 7.3 TL 01 -> https://lnkd.in/gXWBiwz3

    APAR IJ45359 for AIX 7.3 TL 02 -> https://lnkd.in/gZE2vbpx

    APAR IJ45357 for AIX 7.2 TL 05 -> https://lnkd.in/gs6gxyKp


    The problem with the Certificate Server (which prevents the correct download of the CRL that causes the failure "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found ...") is still being investigated - presumably a change needs to be made on esupport.ibm.com.

    (Note that this error also happens with older openssl versions.)
