z/VSE service news: upload data for Level 2, tape delivery droppedToday I want to point you to z/VSE's hot service news on the z/VSE service and support web pages.
Upload of customer data requires IBM Id Starting May 25th, upload of customer material for problem determination changes. Before upload of material, all customers must identify with their IBM Id. Furthermore plain FTP server for manual data upload will be discontinued. Instead FTPS (FTP over TLS) encryption will be enforced to meet legal requirements.
