Error description

  • In keyring-based certificate configuration, users may provide
    keyring names that include special characters. A customer
    reported failures when keyring names include characters such as
    _. These keyring names are valid in their environment, but
    validation rejects them in product flows. This can block users
    from completing proxy user configuration and subsystem
    registration
