ZD&T for development of crypto applications

Invoking the crypto function Unique Key Derive (CSNBUKD) with parameter 'K3IPEK' requires access to Access Control Point (ACP) "Unique Key Derive – K3IPEK" which is disabled by default in the Coprocessor. To enable the ACP it is required to use a TKE.

Unfortunately TKE are not provided for ZD&T and development and test on ZD&T cannot proceed!

ACP could be enabled by modifying ZD&T internal configuration but such configuration is overwritten by the command "ap" excecuted during "awsstart". Once overwritten the file is not read again.

    Thank you for submitting this RFE. IBM has evaluated the request and has determined that it can not be implemented at this time or does not align with the current multi-year strategy. This request may be resubmitted for consideration after 12 months from the date of decline. We appreciate you taking the time to submit this request.

    Customer prefers to have a tool that allows them to autonomously activate/deactivate ACPs.

    As discussed, consider developing a tool to enable ACPs or to ship complementary srd files with all ACPs enabled
