If the directory server connection is SSL enabled, you
must add the certificates from the directory server to WebSphere® Application Server. Retrieving
the certificate ensures that you can establish a connection between
the directory server and WebSphere Application
Server. Ensure that the SSL connection is successful before you configure
the IMS Server for
directory servers.
