Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS Users.                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: It is not possible to use the EXEC CICS *
  *                      CSD ALTER API to alter the definition   *
  *                      of a TCPIPSERVICE from SSL(YES) to      *
  *                      SSL(NO) if the PRIVACY option  has an   *
  *                      existing value for the TCPIPSERVICE.    *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION: .                                            *
  ****************************************************************
  If an application is using EXEC CICS CSD ALTER API
  to issue an ALTER command for a TCPIPSERVICE with a value
  defined for the PRIVACY option, changing the definition to
  SSL(NO), message 5503: E PRIVACY OPTION CONFLICTS WITH SSL(NO)
  OPTION AND IS IGNORED is returned to the application and the
  command is not executed.
  This is because the existing value for PRIVACY in the CSD
  record for the TCPIPSERVICE is incompatible with the change
  to SSL(NO). DFHSPSOE will correct the parameter list and remove
  the PRIVACY option, but in non-terminal mode there is no
  opportunity for the application to accept these changes and
  execute the corrected request.

Problem conclusion

• DFHSPSOE has been altered so that, message 5503 will not be
  issued if a value exists for PRIVACY for a TCPIPSERVICE for
  which an ALTER command with SSL(NO) specified is being issued.
  DFHSPSOE will remove the value for PRIVACY and processing of
  the ALTER command will proceed.
