Error description

  • The problem happens when centralized update is performed on a
    FTA target with no DA installed. This issue happens during the
    download phase of the agent image that will be used for the
    update from MDM to FTA. The transport of the image from MDM to
    FTA fails due to the incorrect folder
    (/opt/IBM/IWS/TWSDATA/ITA/cpa/ita/cert) is being referenced on
    the download command.
    
    The download command is using
    /opt/IBM/IWS/TWSDATA/ITA/cpa/ita/cert to look for the
    TWSClientKeyStore keystore. On FTA with no DA installed, the
    TWSClientKeyStore keystore is located on
    /opt/IBM/IWS/TWSDATA/ssl/GSKit. With this scenario, the
    handshake fails due to certificates not being found, which
    ultimately causes the download of image to fail as well.

Local fix

  • As a workaround, the TWSClientKeyStore files can be copied from
    /opt/IBM/IWS/TWSDATA/ssl/GSKit to
    /opt/IBM/IWS/TWSDATA/ITA/cpa/ita/cert. Then, re-run the
    centralized update and it will be successful.
