Closed as program error.
Error description
Liberty Profile on z/OS does not profile the capability to map a distributed identity ( e.g. LDAP DN) to a SAF identity. This prevents LTPA identity propagation to z/OS resources via WOLA. Inability to fully utilize WOLA functionality to invoke CICS transactions with client identity.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Liberty Profile for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere Application Server for z/OS * * Liberty Profile supports LDAP but does * * not properly map LDAP identities to SAF-* * based ids. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Distributed identities are not mapped to SAF userids because the calls to initialize ACEE are not passing a distributed identity area.
Problem conclusion
Added an new attribute mapDistributedIdentities to the safCredentials configuration element. <safCredentials mapDistributedIdentities="true"/> When mapDistributedIdentities="true" is specified a distributed identity will be mapped to a z/OS SAF userid. The default for mapDistributedIdentities is false. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.5.
