PH51700: IMPORTSAMLIDPMETADATA SHOULD NOT EMIT SSO_1.IDP_1.ENTITYID

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• AdminTask.importSAMLIdpMetadata emits an sso_1.idp_1.EntityID
  property, but there is no such SAML TAI property.
  
  There is a property called sso_1.sp.EntityID, but it is not the
  same value as the one that is emitted for sso_1.idp_1.EntityID
  by AdminTask.importSAMLIdpMetadata.
  
  AdminTask.importSAMLIdpMetadata should not emit
  sso_1.idp_1.EntityID at all.

  emit
  the sso_(id)_idp_(id).EntityID property.
