Error description

IBM HTTP Server 8.5.5.11 or higher allow optionally selecting
an embedded Java 8 for fresh installs. This java version
requires minor changes to the existing ikeyman/gskcmd wrapper
scripts to support CMS keystores

always used.

*                  users of ikeyman or gskcmd shipped with     *
*                  IHS                                         *

****************************************************************
Using Java 8 with IHS necessitates changes to the ikeyman and
gskcmd wrapper scripts in order to maintain support for CMS
keystores.

Problem conclusion

Pass -DADD_CMS_SERVICE_PROVIDER_ENABLED=true to java
certificate management tools to ensure CMS keystores are
available without manual configuration under Java 8.0.

This fix is targeted for IBM HTTP Server fix packs:
- 8.5.5.11
- 9.0.0.3
