AT-TLS awareness for IMS Connect – client certificate RACF user propagation

With AT-TLS and Client authentication it is possible to check the certificate and map it to a RACF userid (SAFCheck Option). Db2 DDF already supports that mechanism, that is called AT-TLS aware (see AT-TLS documentation). We need an option to associate the RACF Userid that AT-TLS mapped from the SSL connections client certificate to the IMS Connect messages being sent using that socket.

    .Hi,
     
    Thank you for your interest in keeping IMS a vital and successful product. Software development has continuously evolved during IMS's lifetime, and so has IMS itself. We have kept pace with, adopted, and implemented many industry standard best practices within our organization, including Continuous Delivery, Design Thinking, and Agile.
     
    When choosing new features to add from the list of requirements in our backlog, we assess which will bring the most value to as many clients as possible and prioritize those.
     
    After reviewing our prioritized backlog, we have decided to reject this RFE as there is a viable workaround that will grant this functionality to our customers. This workaround was provided to all customers who initially voted on this idea. If you are interested in learning more about this solution, please reach out to the IMS team.
     
    We appreciate your input to IMS, and we hope that you will continue to submit ideas for improvements as customer feedback is a key component to shaping the future direction of IMS.
     
    Thank you.
