The following are known issues associated with this release of the connector:
The IBM RACF Advanced Connector can accept and transmit any non-ASCII data to the mainframe, but the mainframe does not accept non-ASCII characters. As a result, any task that requires non-ASCII data transfer fails. In addition, there is no provision in the connector to indicate that the task has failed or that an error has occurred on the mainframe. You must exercise caution when providing inputs to the connector for the target system, especially when using a regional language interface.
Passwords used on the mainframe must conform to stringent rules related to passwords on mainframes. These passwords are also subject to restrictions imposed by corporate policies and rules about mainframe passwords. While creating user accounts for target systems on the mainframe, you must take these requirements into account before assigning passwords for these accounts.
This only applies to a configuration where a single LDAP Gateway connects to multiple installations of the target system. If you configure the connector for trusted source reconciliation and set the idfTrusted
parameter to true in one of the target system installations on the mainframe, then it must be set to true in all installations that connect to the same Gateway. Otherwise, the connector will fail to work.
